Cover Story: The image was taken from unmanned aerial vehicles DJI PHANTOM from a height of 800 m. The floodplain massif of Iya river (a tributary of the Angara River) is shown during the passage of the second wave of a catastrophic flood in the summer of 2019, when many areas of the Angara region suffered from floods caused by increased cyclonic activity. Floodplain flooding occurred at the river outlet from the East Sayan Mountains near the city of Tulun (Iya depression). In the broad sections of river valleys, which are characterized by a combination of segmented-ridge and hollow-island types of relief, as well as extensive swampy massifs, negative forms of the floodplain topography were flooded.

Many soil regulating ecosystem services (ES) are linked to Earth’s atmosphere, but associated monetary values often are unknown or difficult to quantify. Atmospheric deposition of calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) are abiotic flows (wet, dry,...

  • Salvatore Martino and
  • Kacper Pluta

For many geotechnical purposes, the proper estimation of shapes and dimensions of landslide rupture zones is of significant importance. Very often, this exact delineation is difficult due to the lack of information on rupture zone extents in 3D. Base...
