The thermal and metamorphic evolution of mountain belts as a response to erosion, accretion, and radiogenic heating
… of crust enriched in heat-producing elements by accretion and erosion. In collisional settings, these processes lead to the development and growth of a wedge of heat producing crust within the overriding plate. Maximum temperatures in an orogenic setting occur within this wedge, and inverted …

An investigation of bottom changes in Monterey harbor (1932-1969).
… has been 0.4 to 4.0 feet per decade in the beach and nearshore zones and along the breakwater; and less than 0.25 feet per decade in the stable outer harbor. The accretion rate averaged 17,500 cubic yards per year from 1932-1969 but only 7,100 cubic yards per year from 1947 to 1969. The shoaling …

Low-Cost, Close-Range Digital Photogrammetry for Coastal Cliff Deformation and Beach Monitoring
Global warming, environmental change and sea-level rise are now perceived as a real threat to coastal communities across the World, including Wales, where coastal flooding and erosion have become more widespread and accepted. Existing techniques for monitoring the coastal environment are generally …

Sedimentation in a Tupelo-Baldcypress Wetland 12 Years Following Harvest Distubance
Sediment accumulation and loss were measured in a water tupelo (Nyssa aquatica)- baldcypress (Taxodium distichum) forested wetlandin years 2, 7, 10 and 12 following harvesting disturbance. A 3 X 3 Latin Square design was replicated three times and compared to a psuedo-replicate reference stand …
