Abstract:
Alluvial fans and fluvial terraces occur in nearly all climatic settings and often coexist within the same drainage basin. These landforms play an important role in understanding the geomorphic, hydrologic, sedimentologic and erosional histories of a basin. The juxtaposition of fans and fluvial terraces, in some instances, can lead to misinterpretation in distinguishing traditional fluvial terraces from the truncated toe of tributary alluvial fans. This becomes particularly troublesome for those attempting to interpret results from published field studies where fan-cut terrace, truncated alluv

Abstract:
Mt. Seoraksan, Korea, is a rugged granitic mountain where extremely steep slopes and strongly seasonal rainfall have facilitated bedrock exposure and geomorphic changes mainly by rockfalls and streamflows. Although the environment was not suitable for alluvial fan formation, a bouldery alluvial fan, 170 m long and 330 m wide, formed overnight by a heavy summer rain in 2006. The fan consists of several meter-high boulder mounds and gently undulating cobble bars/sheets that are arranged in a fluvial longitudinal bar-like pattern. They are interpreted to have formed by highly competent and turbul

Abstract. Alluvial fans of alpine torrents are both natural deposition areas for sediment discharged by floods and debris flows, and preferred sites for agriculture and settlements. Hazard assessment on alluvial fans depends on proper identification of flow processes and their potential intensity. This study used LiDAR data to examine the morphology of the alluvial fan of a small alpine stream (Moscardo Torrent, Eastern Italian Alps). A high-resolution DTM from LiDAR data was used to calculate a shaded relief map, plan curvature and an index of topographic roughness based on the standard devia

AbstractLarge-magnitude flooding of the Mississippi River from proglacial lakes Agassiz and Superior most likely occurred between 11,300 and 10,900 and 9900 and 9500 yr B.P. The Charleston alluvial fan, a depositional remnant of one of these floods, is located at the head of a wide alluvial plain near Charleston, Missouri. The fan is an elongate, convex-up sand body (16 × 24 km) composed of medium- and fine-grained sand at least 8 m thick. This sand contrasts with the older coarse-grained sand of the braided stream surface to the west and south and younger silty clay of the meandering stream l

The alluvial fan is a depositional geomorphic surface at the foothills. Most of the alluvial fans in tropical regions are highly dynamic under wet climatic conditions and neotectonic environments. The fans of this region are covered with fertile top soils and deep forests. The soils attack people for agriculture in this region. Presently the continuously growing population pressure causes huge deforestation in these alluvial fan areas for cultivation which causes an accelerating rate of natural hazards like flash floods, landslides, and soil erosion that accelerate the dynamic nature of the fa

Abstract:
The northeastern Cameron Hills comprise a Cretaceous bedrock upland, rising &amp;amp;gt;550 m above the regional boreal plains. It was inundated by the Laurentide Ice Sheet and includes much of a prominent 60 by 20 km southwest-oriented mega-scale glacial lineation field, formed in thick till. Subsequent ice flow on northeast Cameron Hills occurred north to south, and a series of lobate and ice-thrust moraines suggest glacial surging. Rotational bedrock slumps cover the eastern and northern flanks of Cameron Hills, and extensive alluvial fan deposits draining from these slopes blanket the surr

Abstract:
The Parowan 7.5' quadrangle is centered around the City of Parowan at the eastern margin of the Basin and Range Province in Iron County, southwestern Utah. The quadrangle covers part of the northwestern flank of the Markagunt Plateau and part of the adjacent Parowan Valley. Interstate 15 crosses the northwestern corner of the map area. Parowan Creek and its tributaries have carved deep canyons into the Markagunt Plateau, exposing a succession of sedimentary and volcanic rocks ranging in age from Late Cretaceous to Middle Pleistocene. The modern landscape is dominated by northeast-southwest-tre

The Sonoran Desert Network (SODN) conducted a vegetation mapping and characterization effort at the two districts of Saguaro National Park from 2010 to 2018. This project was completed under the National Park Service (NPS) Vegetation Mapping Inventory, which aims to complete baseline mapping and classification inventories at more than 270 NPS units. The vegetation map data were collected to provide park managers with a digital map product that meets national standards of spatial and thematic accuracy, while also placing the vegetation into a regional and national context.
