Abstract:
Abstract Recent forest inventories of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia, included sampling for hydric vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland hydrology. Forest samples that met all 3 of these criteria were classified as forested wetland. This study characterizes wetland forests by extent, owner, age, forest type, physiography, volume, growth, and removals, and evaluates its contribution to the timber supply. Wetland stands comprise 8.1 million ac, or 17% of the forests in the 3 States. They are over 90% privately owned, they vary widely by type and physiography, and they contribute 21

The urban expansion and the growth of economic activities related to tourism, as well as those related to the port and sea, resulted in the occupation of the Serra do Mar slopes, in the municipality of São Sebastião - SP. This study was carried out in a clearing in an Atlantic Rainforest fragment of 4.8 hectares, located in the municipality of São Sebastião-SP, to provide subsidies to prevent and/or reduce the risks of land slippage on the slope. Thus, this work analyzed, characterized, and described the physiography and the properties of the soils on a slope of an Atlantic rainforest in the m

Abstract:
Flash floods have led to disruptions of human activities and the destruction of properties particularly in the Nuweiba region of southeast Sinai. Despite the arid nature of Sinai, flash floods still pose a great hazard to the region. Using remote sensing characterization, geohazard models were developed to identify flash flood areas; delineate and discriminate morphological features, active channels areas, and soil physiography with a view to categorize risk areas exposed to flash floods hazards in a hazard map; and proffer measures for mitigation. The characterization was achieved using a wor

Abstract:
Abstract Soil management decisions should consider physical potential of the environment, weather variability, and requirements of crops to maximize production to the potential limits. This calls for characterization of environments using selected input variables. Such studies are scanty in southern central Rift Valley of Ethiopia due to which the area is considered homogeneous and identical for agricultural planning, extension, and input delivery programs. Thus, to investigate the scenario, we employed principal component, clustering, and GIS analysis on geo-referenced physiographic and clima

Abstract:
Prescribed fire has been widely used in the south-eastern United States to meet forest management objectives, but has only recently been reintroduced to the southern Appalachian Mountains. Fuel information is not available to forest managers in this region and direct measurement is often impractical owing to steep, remote topography. The objective of the present study was to determine whether landscape ecosystem classification (LEC) site units support different types and amounts of fuel in the Chauga Ridges, a subregion of the Blue Ridge Mountain Province.

Objective: The aim of this study is to identify areas potentially vulnerable to flooding events through multicriteria analysis, based on hydrogeomorphological variables and land use. Theoretical Framework: The relationship between humanity and landforms has shaped the occupation and use of space, with human activities altering physiography and disrupting natural processes. Geomorphology is essential to understanding the interaction between natural factors and human activities. Uncontrolled urban growth leads to environmental degradation and ecosystem overload, exacerbated by climate change. In

Evaporitic ecosystems of the Atacama Desert contain a rich endemic fauna, including mollusk species. A recent study performed in the freshwater snail Heleobia atacamensis, endemic to the Atacama Saltpan, revealed a strong interdependence of genetic patterns with climatic fluctuations and landscape physiography. The species is currently listed as Critically Endangered at regional scale and as Data Deficient on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List.

Existing models of the hydrogeology in the Blue Ridge Province in the eastern United States generally assume a simplified two-layered system consisting of shallow unconsolidated and relatively homogeneous and porous regolith with a water-table aquifer that slowly supplies water downward to the underlying variably fractured crystalline bedrock. In these models, interconnected fractures in the crystalline bedrock act as conduits for predominantly downward vertical and limited horizontal flow. Fracture density is depthà limited and correlated with proximity to topographic lineaments. Current mode

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Utah (USA) is naturally gifted with bountiful geothermal energy resources. Located along the eastern boundary of the Great Basin, a physiographic region with abundant geothermal heat close to Earth’s surface, Utah’s geothermal resources are a product of several large-scale geologic processes working together: regional hydrological systems flush water from high mountain ranges through adjacent lowlands, accommodated by heavily fractured bedrock and (still active) crustal-scale faults that bound each valley, and sweep geothermal energy from a nearly limitless supply of deep subsurface h

Abstract:
Geohazards are threats of a geological, geotechnical, hydrological or seismic/tectonic nature that can potentially damage pipelines and other infrastructure. Depending on the physiographic setting of a particular pipeline, a broad range of geohazards may be possible along the pipeline route. However, only a limited number of geohazards such as landslides, fault displacement, mining-induced subsidence, liquefaction-induced lateral spreading, and hydrological scour, which can result in permanent ground deformation or exposure of the pipeline to direct impact, typically represent credible threats

Natural hazard threats occur in areas of the built environment where buildings, people, and related financial assets are exposed to the physical effects of earth system processes that have a potential to cause damage, injuries, losses, and related socioeconomic disruption. As cities, towns, and villages continue to expand and densify in response to the pressures of urban growth and development, so too do the levels of exposure and susceptibility to natural hazard threat.
