Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Engineering Geology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.enggeo.2017.09.016
Abstract: Abstract Agricultural irrigation has increased the groundwater level in the Heitai terrace (part of the Heifangtai terrace) by 20 m over nearly five decades, which causes 3–5 landslides each year at the edge of the terrace.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2020.114226
Abstract: Acid mine drainage (AMD) is harmful to the environment and human health. Microorganisms-mineral interactions are responsible for AMD generation but can also remediate AMD contamination. Understanding the microbial response to AMD irrigation will reveal microbial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gloplacha.2020.103271
Abstract: Abstract Fluvial terraces are valuable records to study and characterize landscape evolution and river response to base level lowering, and to decipher coupled responses between fluvial incision and regional tectonics. The opening of closed basins… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2018.03.031
Abstract: Abstract The Black Sea climatically-driven level change is the main control of the Lower Danube incision and aggradation in the long-term subsiding setting of the Eastern Romanian Plain. The interglacial episodes of aggradation suggest a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2017.04.017
Abstract: Abstract This study documents river terraces from upstream reaches of the Dades River, a major fluvial system draining the south-central High Atlas Mountains. Terraces occur as straths with bedrock bases positioned at 10 m altitudinal intervals… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.10.029
Abstract: Abstract We analysed the interplay between coastal uplift, sea level change in the Black Sea, and incision of the Kizilirmak River in northern Turkey. These processes have created multiple co-genetic fluvial and marine terrace sequences… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2020.106369
Abstract: Abstract The Coastal Range in eastern Taiwan, which has resulted from arc-continent collisions, involves well-developed Holocene uplifted marine terraces along a 140-km long stretch of the coast. This is the first study that unraveled the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2020.106571
Abstract: Abstract Along tectonically active margins, the difference in elevations between global sea levels during highstands and uplifted marine terraces is a function of both tectonics and glacial-isostatic adjustment (GIA). However, disentangling the relative influence of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/access.2019.2940437
Abstract: Agricultural terraces, as typically artificial landforms, have maintained an important role throughout human history. Terrace ridges, which form the main constructive part of terraces, face the greatest risk from gully or gravity erosion. Mapping terrace… read more here.
