We have developed a sediment budget and routing model for the Le Sueur River, southern Minnesota. An integral component of the model considers the sediment storage and erosion dynamics of the coupled channel-floodplain system. The Le Sueur River...

The high-density of airborne LiDaR and even higher-density of ground-based LiDaR data now facilitates the production of incredibly rich digital elevation and terrain models (DEMs and DTMs), which have transformed how geomorphologists can describe...

Floods are the most frequent natural disaster, causing more loss of life and property than any other in the USA. Floods also
strongly influence the structure and function of watersheds, stream channels, and aquatic ecosystems. The Pacific...

University deployed two arrays of three sonobuoys over the Blanco
fracture zone and two arrays of four sonobuoys over the Gorda ridge
to detect and locate microearthquakes. Microearthquake activity predicted
by plate tectonic theory for the Blanco...

A proposed modeling technique that yields a best fit to observed
wide-angle reflection profiles incorporates (1) the use of migrated vertical
reflection profiles to provide topographic control, (2) ray tracing
to produce theoretical wide-angle...
