Complex interactions among water, dissolved and suspended material, and gases occur within the critical zone. These interactions depend upon and influence geologic and …
Humans are primary agents of geomorphic change, and rates of anthropogenic landscape change likely far exceed the pace of change expected from natural geologic processes …
Erosion degrades soils, reduces crop yields, and diminishes ecosystem services. The total amount of soil that has been eroded since the initiation of farming is unknown in most …
Concern with the human impact in Geomorphology has a long history. What is new is that since 1969 a number of developments have taken place that have led to an increasing …
Coal combustion residuals (CCRs, also known as “coal ash”) contain high concentrations of toxic and carcinogenic elements that can pose ecological and human health risks upon their …
Expansion and intensification of managed landscapes for agriculture have resulted in severe unintended global impacts, including degradation of arable land and eutrophication …
Channel planform is the result of present and past hydrologic, sedimentary, and geologic conditions, and represents an adjustment of fluvial systems to these conditions. An important …
Fly ash is predominately the inorganic byproduct of coal combustion for electrical power generation. It is composed of aluminosilicates with Fe, Mg, K, and Ca forming submicron to …
Maghemite (Mh) is a ferrimagnetic mineral that governs magnetism in the clay fraction, especially in well weathered soils from tropical and subtropical regions. In this work, we …
