Evaluating Late Pleistocene and Holocene Rupture, Seismic Hazards and Ground Motion in the Lake Tahoe Basin
… reevaluation of active faulting across the Tahoe basin a combination of airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) imagery, high-resolution seismic CHIRP profiles, multibeam bathymetric mapping, and field mapping. The combined lateral and vertical resolution has allowed a straight forward …

Prediction of stream channel location from drainage basin boundaries
… skeletonization algorithms, reduce a planar shape to a one-dimensional, connected, graph-like structure, called a skeleton, that maintains significant information about the properties of the original shape. The morphological similarity between the skeleton of a region and a drainage network …

Determination of streamflow characteristics for ungaged Texas streams using regression analysis
… analysis to relate streamflow characteristics to basin parameters at 63 gaged streams. Gamma, LPIII (Log-Pearson type III), and mixed-LPIII distributions are used to predict the 7Q2's and 7Q10's. Basin parameters used in the analysis include contributing drainage area, channel length and slope, …

Fluvial sedimentation in continental half-graben basins
… architecture of intracontinental rift basins is defined by a dynamic relationship between depositional belts associated with the basin floor and flanking tributary streams on the piedmont. Spatiotemporal distributions of these deposits are sensitive to basin geometry, subsidence rate, …

River network scaling: optimality and anisotropy
… drift and for correlations between scaling and basin shape that have been observed in natural networks. More importantly, it confirms the importance of initial conditions in explaining river network scaling. Future research on river network scaling should focus on factors such as geometry, …

Amphibian and reptile conservation in a changing environment: Case studies from the southeastern United States
… (LiDAR) data to measure wetland bathymetry (basin shape) in flatwoods salamander breeding wetlands. Bathymetry data were used to construct stage–area relationships for each wetland, and a history of water level monitoring data were applied to these relationships to build multi-year time …

Modeling the Lafourche Delta network in the Mississippi Delta Complex
… MB_DCN). The model was run for 9 possible paleo basin boundaries and 6 water discharge parameterizations based on the Mississippi River discharge rate. In each case, the model produced distinguishing channel characteristics including a channel network geometry, progradation rate, and number of …
