Evaluating Geomorphic Change in Little Creek Using Repeated Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Profile Surveys
… Channel change was evaluated by measuring ground profiles using traditional survey methods. Cross section and longitudinal profiles are surveyed annually every summer in the six study reaches. Change is assessed through evaluation of cross sections and longitudinal profiles, analysis of bed …

Understanding uplift of the Ethiopian Plateau from longitudinal profile analysis of the Blue Nile drainage system
… Cenozoic. Here, we used quantitative analysis of longitudinal rive-profile forms and parameters (knickpoint and normalized steepness-index <em>k<sub>sn</sub></em>) of the Blue Nile tributaries to tease out regional tectonic signals.</p> <p>244 knickpoints were examined in the tributaries, majority …

Elevation, Longitudinal Profile, And Schmidt Hammer Analysis Of Strath Terraces Through Capitol Reef National Park, Utah: Bedrock Channel Response To Climate Forcing?
<p>Elevation, longitudinal profile, and Schmidt hammer data indicate that strath terraces (specifically the lower elevation terraces) mapped in the Fremont River drainage of Capitol Reef National Park are correlative to the terraces of the smaller Pleasant Creek drainage located approximately ten …

Late Holocene Uplift of the Chihshang segment of the Longitudinal Valley Fault at Fuli, Eastern Taiwan
… uplift and horizontal shortening rates of the Longitudinal Valley fault. Detrital charcoal fragments collected from three terraces within the Bieh River drainage yield ages between 1395 and 555 cal. yr B.P, suggesting an average uplift rate of 11.3 ± 3.6 mm yr<sup>-1</sup> for the last 1400 …

Ultra-fast photon and electron beam diagnostics for free electron lasers
… optical pulses in two FELs; and to obtain the longitudinal profile of electron bunches, both by probing the near-field transition radiation and by directly sensing the Coulomb field of the electron bunches.<br/><br/>Although the techniques described are not truly single-shot - requiring …

Distribution of Rotifera and Cladocera in a regulated river system
… rotifer abundance, rotifers were sampled along a longitudinal transect of Winfield pool and lower Marmet pool to determine longitudinal distribution. Cladocera were sampled with funnel traps at Marmet and Winfield Locks and Dams from lock wall, mid channel, and near shore sites. The seasonal study …

Simulación del flujo sanguíneo y su interacción con la pared arterial mediante modelos de elementos finitos
… meshes are generated automatically from the longitudinal profile and diameters of the arteries. In order to simulate absorbent boundary conditions at the outlet a one-dimensional interaction model is developed. This 1D model is coupled to the three-dimensional model at the outlet, so the …

Fault Behavior and Kinematic Evolution of the Eastern California Shear Zone
… morphologies characterized by a "whaleback" longitudinal profile and an arrowhead shape in map view. Gradual changes in form with increasing restraining bend size suggest a common growth mechanism influenced more by the kinematics of local fault geometries than by the fault's obliquity to …

Alluvial river response to active tectonics in the Dehradun region, Northwest India: A case study of the Ganga and Yamuna rivers.
… yet clearly visible in the landscape. Therefore, longitudinal river profiles of the Ganges and Yamuna rivers from the Lesser Himalaya mountain front to ~35 km into the Gangetic Plain were extracted from a 90 m Digital Elevation Model and hydraulic features, including width of channel belt, channel …

Controls on post-High Park Fire channel response, South Fork Cache la Poudre Basin, Colorado
… mulch during June 2013. Repeat cross section and longitudinal profile surveys were performed to evaluate event-driven changes. The dominant response in both basins post-fire was net degradation. Steep channel slopes promoted channel incision with no significant overbank deposition, indicating that …

Reservoir sedimentation in dryland catchments : modelling and management
… It simulates sediment transport along the longitudinal profile of a reservoir. The reservoir is divided into cross sections to elaborate the sediment budget. The sediment transport component is calculated using a non-uniform sediment transport approach based on the concept of sediment …

Utilizing archival data to assess historic changes in flood flow conveyance of the Mississippi River
… analyses, but show stage-changes as continuous longitudinal profile and not just at gaging stations. Scenario modeling suggests that the majority (38 to 70%) of the changes in flood stage on the LMR and MMR study reaches can be attributed to changes in channel geometry and hydraulic roughness. …

The efficacy of back calculation methods for determining length at age data and the use of such data to determine growth standards, national growth patterns and recruitment dynamics of roach (Rutilus rutilus (L.)), dace (Leuciscus leuciscus (L.)) and chub (Leuciscus cephalus (L.)) in UK rivers
… and follow non-random patterns along a longitudinal profile (Jackson et al. 2001). Plasticity in the growth of fish along the longitudinal gradient of rivers has been demonstrated (Cowx 1988; Zelt et al. 1999). This study affirms the longitudinal plasticity in the growth of roach, dace …
