Arctic Landscapes in Transition: Responses to Thawing Permafrost
Joel C. Rowland,Charles Jones,G. Altmann,R. Bryan,Benjamin T. Crosby,Larry D. Hinzman,D. L. Kane,David M. Lawrence,A. Mancino,Philip Marsh,James P. McNamara,V. E. Romanvosky,Horacio Toniolo,Bryan J. Travis,Erin Trochim,Cathy J. Wilson,G. L. Geernaert +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that over the past several decades, geomorphic processes in the Arctic have been changing or intensifying due to global warming and that lakes, ponds, and wetlands appear to be more dynamic, growing in some areas, shrinking in others, and changing distribution across lowland regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Ponded Turbidity Currents in Reservoir Trap Efficiency
Horacio Toniolo,Gary Parker,Gary Parker,Gary Parker,Vaughan R Voller,Vaughan R Voller,Vaughan R Voller +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model of trap efficiency of mud is developed in terms of the mechanics of a turbidity current that plunges on the foreset of a river entering a reservoir.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphologic changes in the Paraná River channel (Argentina) in the light of the climate variability during the 20th century
TL;DR: In this article, the Parana River basin has been quantitatively analyzed and the link between climate, hydrology and channel morphology is obtained through the computation of effective discharge, which implicitly synthesizes the point hydrologic and bed sediment transport changes in an alluvial stream during a relatively long period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trapping of sustained turbidity currents by intraslope minibasins
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the dynamics of sustained turbidity currents and their depositional characteristics in a scaled physical model of a minibasin and developed a simple model to predict the trapping of sediment within the basin based on the relative magnitudes of the input discharge of turbid water and the discharge of water across the settling interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depositional Turbidity Currents in Diapiric Minibasins on the Continental Slope: Formulation and Theory
TL;DR: In this article, a theory is developed to describe sediment deposition in diapiric minibasins based on the hypotheses that the turbidity currents in question are sustained for at least about one hour.
