Abstract:
The high-resolution regional division of mountainous area types has important scientific significance for promoting precise management of land space and regional sustainable development. At present, the classification method of mountainous area types is mainly at the county level and above, while classifications for towns and villages are nearly nonexistent, which poses a technical challenge for rural revitalization and the construction of ecological civilization in mountainous areas. We used Yuxi city, Yunnan Province, as the target area of this research, which was based on GIS technology and

China covers an area of 9.6 million square kilometers, of which mountains and hills account for 65 percent[1]. As a result, a large number of economic construction need to be done in the mountain. However, because of its special nature and geological conditions, different types of landslide hazard phenomenon often occurred in the construction which seriously restricted the rapid development of the regional economy. Therefore, the author takes Lanzhou city, Gansu province which is the typical mountain town as an example to analysis of the types, characteristics, causes and prevention measures o

In the context of the current information age, leveraging Earth observation (EO) technology and spatial analysis methods enables a more accurate understanding of the characteristics of small towns. This study conducted an in-depth analysis of the urban morphology of small towns in the Qinba Mountain Area of Southern Shaanxi by employing large-scale data analysis and innovative urban form measurement methods. The U-Net3+ model, based on deep learning technology, combined with the concave hull algorithm, was used to extract and precisely define the boundaries of 31,799 buildings and small towns.

For more than a half million years the mountain played a role in human cultural activities. The water flowing off Table Mountain resulted in the establishment of Cape Town in 1652. During the first 240 years of the city’s existence until 1891, everything possible was employed to make the most of the water cascading down the northern slopes of the mountain. In 1891, the city commenced with the utilising of the mountain’s water running southwards to wa

The water supply in the municipality of Berkovitsa is taken care of by the operator "ViK Berkovitsa" EOOD. The separate territory of ViK Berkovitsa EOOD consists of a total of six different sized water supply systems (WSS), one of which is WSS Berkovitsa � for the town of Berkovitsa. T

Abstract:
Former uranium mining and milling activities in Central and Eastern Europe have resulted in a number of environmental and radiological hazards to the local populations of these countries. Depending on the nature of the activities undertaken, the results can range from a small number of large liabilities (e.g. tailings heaps, ponds, etc) through to a large number of much smaller liabilities (e.g. exploration adits, contaminated rubble, etc). Where a small number of liabilities exist (e.g. Slovakia [1]), a detailed dose assessment is appropriate, from which decisions about the need (or otherwise

Abstract:
The Gold Hill quadrangle is on the northern end of the Deep Creek Range, approximately 65 kilometers (40 miles) south southeast of Wendover, Utah and 20 kilometers (12 miles) east of the Nevada border. The Deep Creek Range is a north-trending fault-bounded range exemplifying the ranges in the northern Basin and Range physiographic province. Dutch Mountain, approximately 7.2 kilometers (4.5 miles) north-northwest of Gold Hill town, is the highest point in the Gold Hill quadrangle at 2,372 meterc (7,794 feet). Lowlands, south of Dutch Mountain and west of Gold Hill town, range in elevation from

Abstract:
The Kamas 7.5′ quadrangle is in the Wasatch back valleys about 30 miles (50 km) east of Salt Lake City, Utah. The quadrangle is centered over the north-south-trending Kamas Valley and contains the cities of Kamas and Oakley, and the town of Peoa. Kamas Valley is situated between the foothills of the Uinta Mountains to the east and the West Hills of the Keetley volcanic f ield to the west. The Kamas region is part of the Middle Rocky Mountains physiographic province, located at the juxtaposition of several key tectonic features. A major tectonic trend known as the Cheyenne Belt runs east-west a

Tourism is one of six innovation themes identified in the Heyfield and District Context Analysis1, which states the following regarding the opportunity to develop tourism in the area (p. 3): Heyfield’s location, nearby places of scenic beauty, Lake Glenmaggie, forested areas including tracks and trails, can support and add value to tourism ideas. Heyfield is known locally as a Gateway to the Southern Alps. The aim of the Heyfield and District Context Analysis was to “to investigate opportunities that will lead to long-term economic and social benefits, new jobs in sustainable industries, and t

Abstract:
Juab Valley is a north-south-trending basin in the eastern Basin and Range Province. Juab Valley is bounded on the east by the Wasatch normal fault and the Wasatch Range and San Pitch Mountains, bounded on the west by Long Ridge and the West Hills. Juab Valley is at the southern end of Utah’s Wasatch Front, an area of projected rapid population growth and increased groundwater use. East-west-trending surface-water, groundwater, and water-rights boundaries approximately coincide along the valley’s geographic midline at Levan Ridge, an east-west trending watershed divide that separates the north

Abstract:
This geologic map of the Duchesne 30' x 60' quadrangle is the result of five years of new mapping aided by previous mapping. Approximately centered on the town of Duchesne, Utah, the Duchesne County seat, the quadrangle covers most of the western Uinta Basin. Tertiary rocks of the Green River, Uinta, and Duchesne River Formations dominate the bedrock units in the quadrangle. Members of the formations are recognized and mapped throughout the Duchesne quadrangle despite the coarsening of these members in the western half.

Abstract:
The Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH), a region of immense natural beauty and ecological significance spans an area of 595,000 km² across the eight countries. It is the ‘water tower of Asia’ with the headwaters of 10 major river systems supporting about 1.9 billion people. However, the region is facing severe challenges due to rapid and unplanned urbanisation, climate change and environmental degradation. Rapid glacier retreat in a warming climate threatens future water supplies while concretised development will further disrupt hydrological patterns and reduce groundwater recharge leading to water sc
