Montenegro — literally, ‘black mountain’ — is in fact a place of thick green forests, ice-blue lakes and white-capped peaks. A journey through the Balkan beauty reveals the wealth of stories and sights packed into one of Europe’s smallest countries.
What Are Bogs and Where Did They Come From? Scientists discovered that bogs were made by glacial deposits thousands of years ago. Many bogs began as ponds and small lakes called kettle holes that were created when glaciers began to separate from one another. These glaciers became lodged in dep...
The mesh in this case is formed of 1D elements in the horizontal, which are then extruded downwards to 1000 m. A single layer of triangular elements was used in the vertical and the timestep was fixed at 1 s. The Fluidity results are compared to Haugen et al. (2005) in Fig. 2. ...
These formational structures have been interpreted as synclinal and monoclinal folds and associated ruptures developed by subsidence over caverns that formed by the removal of ice, water, and fluidized sediment12,13. The southern Margaritifer Terra highlands are extensively dissected by vast canyon ...
