The Arctic is warming nearly four times faster than the globe. drastic consequences of climate change are observed in high mountain areas located within coast. This where permafrost degradation and slope destabilization occur, which can be a direct cause large-scale landslides. Masses soil, rocks sediments reaching coast formation tsunami waves, which, other side fjord or strait, destroy infrastructure affect development coastal zone. An example this Vaigat Strait western Greenland, waves...
The paper reviews recent advances in landform mapping and interpretation the mountainous terrain of Sudetes (SW Poland), possible due to availability high-resolution airborne LiDAR data.They are particularly useful recognition minor landforms their spatial patterns montane forest belt dwarf pine zone most elevated parts Sudetes.The use data has allowed both re-evaluate known before, especially extent cross-relationships, as well discover surface features that have escaped attention...
This article presents results of two-dimensional electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) applied to three types patterned ground in Wedel-Jarlsberg Land (Svalbard), carried out late July 2012. The structures investigated include sorted circles, non-sorted polygons and a net with coarser material. ERT was used recognize the internal structure, shape permafrost table below active layer geometric relationships between permafrost, layering surface patterns. Results inversion modelling indicate...
It has been widely reported that Arctic sea ice decreased in both extent and thickness, coupled with steadily rising mean annual temperatures. These trends have particularly severe along the rock coast of southern Svalbard. Concerns raised over potential for higher energy storms longer ice-free open water seasons to increase exposure coasts, consequently concentration infrastructure critical community survival, enhanced rates erosion. Here we present apply innovative remote sensing,...
Abstract Colluvial sediments originating from soil erosion on slopes have proven to constitute significant evidence for tracing past human impact mountain landscapes. In the Central European Erzgebirge (Ore) Mountains, colluvial are associated with specific landforms (footslopes, slope flattenings, dells) and cover a share of 11% (11,905 ha) regional landscape. Thirteen pedosedimentary sections layers were investigated at five forested sites (520–730 m a.s.l.) within context mining...
The paper presents an example of using photographs taken by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and processed the structure from motion (SfM) procedure in a geomorphological study rock relief. Subject to analysis is small city West Sudetes (SW Poland), known as Starościńskie Skały developed coarse granite bedrock. aims this were, first, compare UAV/SfM-derived data with cartographical image based on traditional field-mapping methods digital elevation model derived airborne laser scanning (ALS)....
Permafrost degradation is one of the most pressing issues in modern cryosphere related to climate change. Most attention paid top active permafrost associated with contemporary climate. This popular issue because subsurface part it there usually greatest accumulation ground ice direct relation changes taking place. The melting cause subsidence and other mass-wasting processes. layer also responsible for increased emission CO 2 methane. However, this not a fully comprehensive look at...
Paper described geomorphological characteristics of landform sets which occur on research areas investigated by Polish geomorphologists Spitsbergen.These area involve four along the western coast Spitsbergen, i.e. vicinities Kaffiøyra, Werenskioldbreen, Calyp sostranda, and Hornsund, as wel one located in central part vicinity Billefjord with special emphasis surroundings Petuniabkukta.Landforms are characterized different morphogenetic terms, mainly glacial, peryglacial, deundational,...
In urbanized areas, particularly in lowland terrains and floors of large river valleys, the natural land configuration is often hard to recognize due a long history human activity. Accordingly, archaeological works cities, which supply knowledge on settlement conditions, are usually accompanied by geological geomophological research. Lately, data from light detection ranging (LiDAR) have become valuable source information urban configuration. Geophysical methods also becoming increasingly...
