Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleActive Faulting and Quaternary Landforms Deformation Related to the Nain FaultAbolghasem Gourabi, Mojtaba YamaniProblem statement: Landforms developed across terrain defining boundary the Nain fault have imprints of recent tectonic activity in the west region of Central Iran. Depositional landforms such as alluvial fans bear signatures of later phases of tectonic activity in the form of faulting of alluvial fan deposits and development of fault traces and scarps within 100 km long and a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 2 Nov 2011 · 7,823 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSensing the Hydrogeomorphology and Palaeohydrologic Features of Mars Planet with Inference from the Egyptian Desert: An Insight from Satellite ImagesMohamed YousifThe water access in any planet of the universe can be considered a crucial evidence for life existence. The study of Mars has special importance where it has a complex preserved geological record of a time period longer than on Earth. Many regions of Mars planet are subjected to observations through the obtained satellite images in comparison to similar areas … …Space Science International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2020 · 13,200 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Landform and Sunlight in Zayandeh Roud BasinKaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Maryam Marani-BarzaniSolar energy is as of energy that it is significant in human activities.

In this study, classification of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2021 · 5,880 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeep Erosion by Continental Ice Sheets: A Northern Missouri River Drainage Basin Perspective: North AmericaEric ClausenWhile accepting some erosion by continental ice sheets most geologists reject a previously proposed deep erosion by continental ice sheets hypothesis, yet common sense logic suggests continental ice sheets should have eroded much more than they are usually given credit for. Such situations arise in scientific communities when an accepted paradigm cannot adequately explain significant observable evidence. A new and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2019 · 8,883 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNasa Selects Concepts for a New Mission to Titan, the Moon of SaturnRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuNasa just has selected two new concepts for some new robotic missions, one of which aims to explore potential landing sites on Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. This first concept is named Dragonfly, which is a drone-like rotorcraft that would use the environment on Titan to fly to a number of locations to sample materials and determine surface composition to examine … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2018 · 12,003 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeomorphology Using Geographic Information System and Globel MapperEmad AkawwiAn effort has been made to evaluate drainage morphometry and its influence on landform processes, geology and erosion characteristics in Jordan Valley and surrounding area. Geological maps 1:50,000 scale and the professional Google Earth images were used for analysis of various morphometric, lithological and landform characteristics of Jordan Valley basin. Morphometric analysis was carried out at sub basin level using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Sep 2013 · 7,090 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Features of Rodoretto Valley Deep-Seated Gravitational Slope DeformationsMaria Gabriella Forno, Andrea Lingua, Stefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaA new, detailed survey of the Rodoretto Valley (Western Alps, Italy) has been conducted resulting in the production of a new morphological and quaternary geological map of the area. The authors used the innovative Solid (True) Ortho-Photo (STOP) technology integrated with navigation sensors (Global Navigation Satellite System-GNSS/Inertial Measurement Unit-IMU). This state-of-the-art procedure has demonstrated several operational advantages during both the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 9 Feb 2013 · 7,031 accessesView PDF Cite
