These landforms play an important role in modulating flood wave dynamics in the lower reach of the Negro River. Seasonal water storage occurs in the channels and lakes of the archipelago due to the backwater effect caused by the Amazon River, which is the main control in the spatiotemporal ...
The influence of geomorphology and sedimentary processes on benthic habitat distribution and littoral sediment dynamics: Geraldton, Western Australia Understanding of the processes regulating sediment transport, accumulation and erosion requires an appropriate mapping of coastal geomorphology, seabed sed...

Montastraea cavernosasamples were collected during May and June 2017 on a joint U.S.-Cuba expedition that circumnavigated the Cuban archipelago to survey and characterize the geomorphology, biodiversity, and ecological health status of Cuba’s shallow and mesophotic coral ecosystems61. Ninety-four sh...
Thus, glacier fluctuations in the sub-Antarctic region can provide valuable insight into the past climate dynamics of the region. While glacial records from Patagonia and New Zealand are relatively abundant, there is still a lack of knowledge about the past glacial history of the sub-Antarctic ...
Despite its worldwide distribution in sedimentary infralittoral and circalittoral bottoms, rhodolith beds have been the subject of fewer studies than other nearshore communities, like kelp forests and coral reefs. This is also the case in Madeira archipelago (Eastern Atlantic), where until recently ...

This chapter presents how hydro-geomorphology and changes in environmental conditions controlled the formation and functioning of these two anabranching reaches in the Negro River. The present hydro-sedimentary dynamics is not compatible with the existing morphology, which is product of a Middle-Late ...
Multiproxy datasets (geocryology, geochronology, sedimentology, palaeo-ecology) from permafrost exposures were used together with land surface information based on satellite imagery and thematic maps in order to reconstruct the Lateglacial to Holocene landscape and environmental dynamics of Bunge Land (...
The Tyrrhenian Sea is characterized by a microtidal regime, which has only a secondary influence on the coastal dynamics. The Tyrrhenian Sea is a young back arc basin with a continental shelf characterized by siliciclastic sediments, delivered mainly by rivers. However, areas of carbonate ...
