The bedload transport rate is of large fluctuation across several time scales. Understanding bedload transport fluctuation would be helpful for modeling the transport process. In this talk, we first report a multi-scale phenomenon of fluctuation of bedload ...
Deltas are very sensitive environments and highly vulnerable to variations in water discharge and the amount of suspended sediment load provided by the delta-forming currents. Human activities in the watershed, such as building of dams and irrigation ditch ...
This paper deals with modelling the mutual feedbacks between runoff production and geomorphological processes and attributes that lead to patterns of equilibrium soil depth. Our primary goal is an attempt to describe spatial patterns of soil depth resultin ...
Since 2008 we have been monitoring a watershed in the alps to assess the impact of the spatial heterogeneity of meteorological variables over a complex terrain and identify the mechanisms generating streamflow. The study area is located in the Swiss Alps a ...
An important study domain in hydrology is dedicated to understand how the spatial organization of river networks is reflected in the hydrologic response to rainfall inputs (Biswal and Marani, 2010). Base flow (or recession flow) is the discharge rate in a ...
At the end of the nineties the emergence of high resolution (1 m) digital elevation models (DEMs) settled the context of high precision geomorphological analysis. These new elevation models permitted to reveal structures that remained heretofore undetectab ...
Switzerland is exceptionally subjected to landslides; indeed, about 10% of its area is considered as unstable. Making this observation, its Department of the Environment (BAFU) introduced in 1997 a method to realize landslide hazard map. It is routinely us ...
Evaluation of interfacial toughness of sub-micron-thickness layers deposited on a ductile substrate is a challenging task which has motivated different experimental approaches Fragmentation testing was used in the present study as a means of interface char ...
