This paper presents a multidisciplinary approach for studying the evolution of an alluvial fan system in Lower Khuzestan (SW Iran). The study draws on previously collected data from geological and archaeological field campaigns and new data derived

of salt and the protective effects of endolithic microbes. Cavity patterns produced by complex interactions between inorganic processes and biologic activity provide a geological model of ‘self-organization’. Surface hardening is not a factor in honeycomb
In this paper reflections on the development of scarpfoot depressions are presented from a geomorphologic-geological, and sedimentological point of view. They are intended to clarify whether post-sedimentary relief development in Central Sahara
has proved to be a useful tool to separate geological and anthropogenic causes of variation in soil heavy metal content and to identify common pollution sources.

. The results were compared with the geological background (with measurements mate at other cemeteries in south-eastern Poland). Over burials a low content of elements were confirmed, while high iron ion concentrations in groundwater are indicative of a useful
by Quaternary sediments and Tertiary clystones. The stability of these anthropogenic slopes is implicated by hillside inclination, geological and geomorphological settings as well as climatic factors. - (EN)
The object of this study is the dendrogeomorphological research of 35 severely tilted trees (Fagus sylvatica) in a natural hazard area around Jezeří Chateau in the Krušné Hory Mts. The paper studies the dynamics of mass movement in a geologically
on a schematic geological map where the main sedimentary and volcanic units have been reported. Morphotectonic analysis shows that Mt. Etna volcano exhibits active extensional features represented by normal faults and eruptive fissures which are related
, resulting in an extensionaltranstensional regime persisting most of the time in the forearc area. It is concluded that the geologic evolution of the investigated forearc area was characterized by an alternation of long-lived stages of extension-transtension
The results of a study on the stability conditions of the Gerace hill slopes (Reggio Calabria, Italy) are here reported. This study has been focused on the role of the geological setting of the hill, represented by a meso-cenozoic sedimentary
of the ignimbrite deposits and faults of the CVZ (Campania Plain and Bay of Naples) was made by means of the interpretation of an integrated geological geophysical database. - (NF)
The clarification of the location and origin of the siliceous-calcareous deposits north of Magyarkút (N-Hungary) can lead noteworthy conclusions in connection with the geological evolution in the environment of Szokolya Basin. According
