The Loess Plateau is a region of importance in geomorphologic research because of its typical loess layers and intense surface erosion. Analysing the landforms on the Loess Plateau is helpful for understanding changes in the surface environment. However,
Classics in physical geography revisited: Timble, S. W. 1983: A sediment budget for Coon Crrek basin in the Driftless area, Wisconsin, 1983-1977Boardman, John
Sand deposition was measured every month (June, July and August) on a 0.1 × 0.1 m scale with the use of a sediment erosion bar construction. We determined the total volume of sand capture by calculating the amount of sand on each plot, corrected by the overall block-level chang...

The sampler, which contained 24 1-L bottles (Fig. 5b), was programmed to collected water samples for subsequent suspended sediment and total phosphorus analysis. Sam- pling was activated by water level increases greater than 0.02 m in one hour during the rising limb of the hydrograph ...
Ian Wrenis the Staff Scientist for San Francisco Baykeeper, which works to maintain a healthy ecosystem for wildlife and Bay Area communities. Ian is a hydrologist and works primarily on issues of stormwater, sediment management, nutrients and sea level rise. He has been involved in advocacy and...
The suspension of water and nutrients during the storm is assumed chaotic, alongside other natural atmospheric and dynamic alterations such as humidity, wind speed, water level, light intensity, etc. (Table S3). 2.2. Plastisphere biomass sampling Over the entire course of the experiment, three ...
Figure 2. Stand-level forest height change with elevation is best described using different functional forms on the quartz dioritic and volcanoclastic bedrock. (a) Best-fit sigmoid model on quartz diorite, with inflection point located at 621.8 ± 2.1 m (mean ± S.E.) near the elevation of...
The abundance of C3 grass phytoliths is interpreted as the existence of aquatic vegetation of a wetland (dominated by C3) near the sediment core site, similar to today. Due to changes in the water level of paleo-lake Chew Bahir over the past 20 ka, the wetland vegetation may have ...
