Tautologies toponymiques : comment apprivoiser l’espace entre continuités et fractures by Fabio Armand, Jean-Pierre Gerfaud

“…Beyond the need for an ever-renewed motivation for toponymic designations, they address the problem of contacts between populations and reflect the way these contacts have been established. From a shared geomorphological reality, i.e. the combination of geophysical and anthropized spaces, different languages and cultures can produce semantic partitions that aim to tame extra-linguistic space. …”

Les changements hydromorphologiques de l’estuaire de la Loire et l’évolution du port de Rezé/Ratiatum (Loire-Atlantique) by Rémy Arthuis

“…Many of the geomorphological features present in the Loire Valley, between the Roman port of Nantes/Condevicnum (Loire-Atlantique) on the right bank and that of Rezé/Ratiatum (Loire-Atlantique) on the left bank, appeared gradually between 5700 and 4500 BP, during the final Neolithic period. …”

Forms of the Earth and Urban Forms by Giuseppe Tupputi

“…In this sense, the projects for the Magliana quarters in Rome, by Saverio Muratori, and the project for Monteruscello, by Agostino Renna, can be considered as paradigmatic examples, because they represent an attempt to define settlements principles that correspond to the geomorphologic characters of the territory. The proposed paper intends to analyse these projects, in particular through the method of the critical drawing, identifying different scales of representation, each of which offers the possibility of investigating some specific structuring processes of urban form.…”

CLASSIFICATION OF THE SEVERNAYA DVINA RIVER AND THE VYCHEGDA RIVER CHANNEL SECTIONS ACCORDING TO COMPLEXITY OF CHANNEL PROCESSES AND THEIR MANAGEMENT CONDITIONS by Nadezhda M. Mikhailova, Roman S. Chalov

“…The developed and approved earlier methodology was applied to rank rivers in by the channel stability, the load and composition of sediments (the factor was applied for the first time to the rivers under study), water capacity, geological and geomorphological conditions of the channel formation conditions (embedded riverbeds or channels with wide floodplain), evolution of different morpho/dynamic types of channel, abundance and mode of deformations of riffles. …”

Évolution des ponts et du lit mineur de la Loire, entre La Charité-sur-Loire et la Chapelle-Montlinard by Annie Dumont, Marion Foucher, Ronan Steinmann, Catherine Lavier, Philippe Moyat, Jean-Pierre Garcia

“…For this purpose, the study of archival literature (texts and maps) was combined with underwater archaeology, dendrochronology, building archaeology, and geomorphological landscape analyses. Although this is an ongoing research project, sufficient data have been collected to allow the presentation of a preliminary series of results.…”

Hunters Before ‘Diana’: examining pre-protohistoric lithic artifacts at the sanctuary of ‘Diana nemorensis’ (Lake Nemi, central Italy) as an indicator of human-environmental intera... by Flavio Altamura, Francesca Diosono

“…However, during the Mid-Late Holocene, decreasing water levels allowed late prehistoric and protohistoric groups to engage in diverse activities in the basin, leaving traces that may hold early symbolic significance. The geomorphological setting and early occupation dynamics influenced the palaeoenvironmental conditions and the patterns of human presence and utilization of the area during the Iron Age and historical times. …”

Offshore evidence for volcanic landslide post Last Glacial Maximum at sub-Antarctic Heard Island, southern Indian Ocean by Jodi M. Fox, Sally J. Watson, Trevor J. Falloon, Rebecca J. Carey, Joanne M. Whittaker, Erica A. Spain, Robert A. Duncan, Richard J. Arculus, Millard F. Coffin

“…Here we present the first offshore geomorphological and geological evidence supporting a volcanic landslide on Big Ben, including: (1) the seafloor to the southwest of Heard resembling a landslide deposit, covering at least 467 km2, (2) the spatial correlation between the onshore landslide scar and the offshore deposit and (3) the consistency in lithologies and compositions of rocks sampled from the deposit with the onshore in situ lithologies. 40Ar/39Ar geochronology constrains the maximum age of the volcanic landslide to 18.0 ± 1.4 ka, post the Last Glacial Maximum. …”
