The Shanxi rift is located in the central part of the North China Craton (NCC). With strong tectonic deformation and intense seismic activity, its crust‐mantle deformation and deep structure have always attracted wide ...

One important attribute of meteorological forecasts is their representation of spatial structures. While several existing verification methods explicitly measure a structure error, they mostly produce a single value with ...

Soil water stable isotopes are widely used across disciplines (e.g., hydrology, ecology, soil science, and biogeochemistry). However, the full potential of stables isotopes as a tool for characterizing the origin, flow ...

In this work the dune model introduced by Sauermann et al. (2001) is extended and applied to investigate the formation of different dune shapes on Mars and on Earth as function of wind directionality and sand availability. ...

The launch of the champ mission in 2000 has renewed interest in the recovery of the geopotential field from satellite observations which has been a challenging research issue for decades. It was the first dedicated gravity ...

The Saunders Creek is a tributary catchment for the River Murray which generates ephemeral flows in very wet years. Concerns have been expressed at the construction of large dams in the headwaters of the catchment, and ...

A major problem in the precise orbit determination (POD) of satellites at altitudes below 1,000 km is the modeling of the aerodynamic drag which mainly depends on the thermospheric density and causes the largest non‐gravitational ...

The transport of sand by wind shapes the Earth's surface and constitutes one major factor for the emission of dust aerosols. The accurate modeling of wind‐blown sand transport is thus important to achieve reliable climate ...

Schauplätze der Umweltgeschichte sind Orte, an denen sich exemplarisch umweltbezogenes Handeln demonstrieren lässt bzw. Orte, von denen Ideen ausgingen, die umwelthistorisch weitreichende Konsequenzen hatten. Die Darstellungen ...
