Full-Scale Crustal Interpretation of Kokkola–Kymi (KOKKY) Seismic Profile, Fennoscandian Shield
(Springer Nature, 2020)The Kokkola–Kymi Deep Seismic Sounding profile crosses the Fennoscandian Shield in northwest-southeast (NW–SE) direction from Bothnian belt to Wiborg rapakivi batholith through Central Finland granitoid complex (CFGC). ... -
TTZ-South seismic experiment
(Geofizicheskiy Zhurnal, 2020)The wide-angle reflection and refraction (WARR) TTZ-South transect carried out in 2018 crosses the SW region of Ukraine and the SE region of Poland. The TTZ-South profile targeted the structure of the Earth’s crust and ... -
In Memoriam Professor Marek Grad (1951–2020) an outstanding Polish geophysicist and polar researcher
(Polish Academy of Sciences, 2020) -
Segment-Scale Seismicity of the Ultraslow Spreading Knipovich Ridge
(AGU, 2021)Ultraslow spreading ridges form the slowest divergent plate boundaries and exhibit distinct spreading processes in volcanically active magmatic sections and intervening amagmatic sections. Local seismicity studies of ... -
Hydrological responses to land use land cover changes in the Fincha'a watershed, Ethiopia
(MDPI, 2021-08-31)Land use land cover (LULC) changes are highly pronounced in African countries, as they are characterized by an agriculture-based economy and a rapidly growing population. Understanding how land use/cover changes (LULCC) ... -
The Microscopic Insight into Fracturing of Brittle Materials with the Discrete Element Method
(Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 2020)Geophysics is an extremely vast field of science that studies the physical processes taking place on Earth or other planets. One of such processes is fracturing of materials. To support these statesments two phenomena can ... -
Seven Decades of Publishing with the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences
(Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 2021-08-25)Seven years have passed since the last brief outline of the editorial output of the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, was published (Dziembowska and Wernik 2014); the present text is a continuation and ... -
A Review on Land Use and Land Cover Change in Ethiopian Basins
(MDPI, 2021-06-01)Land Use Land Cover (LULC) changes analysis is one of the most useful methodologies to understand how the land was used in the past years, what types of detections are to be expected in the future, as well as the driving ... -
Deriving Planform Morphology and Vegetation Coverage From Remote Sensing to Support River Management Applications
(2021-05-04)With the increasing availability of big geospatial data (e.g., multi-spectral satellite imagery) and access to platforms that support multi-temporal analyses (e.g., cloud-based computing, Geographical Information Systems, ... -
Structure of a diffuse suture between Fennoscandia and Sarmatia in SE Poland based on interpretation of regional reflection seismic profiles supported by unsupervised clustering
(2021-03-31)The Paleoproterozoic suture between Sarmatia and Fennoscandia (SFS), two major components of the East European Craton, extends SW-ward from Russia through Belarus to SE Poland. The exact character of this suture remains ... -
Characterization of drilling-related noise and curvelet-based evaluation of seismic-interferometric reflections for imaging of iron-bearing formations in Pilbara,Western Australia
(2021)Here we analyse ambient noise (AN) data generated during drilling of exploration boreholes and recorded using a dense array deployed over one of the numerous shallow iron-ore mineralisation targets in the Pilbara region ... -
EGATEC Engineering Model of the Global ATmospheric Electric Circuit. Version 1.2
(2010-07-26)This document describes version 1.2 of EGATEC, an engineering model of the Earth’s DC global atmospheric electric circuit, developed at the University of Leicester in a project sponsored by the European Commission. EGATEC ... -
Numerical modeling of the hydro-morphodynamics of a distributary channel of the Po River Delta (Italy) during the spring 2009 flood event
(MDPI, 2020-05-30)One-dimensional (1D) numerical models generally provide reliable results when applied to simulate river hydraulics and morphodynamics upstream of the tidal influence, given the predominantly unidirectional flow conditions. ... -
Tidal modulation of river-flood deposits: How low can you go?
(The Geological Society of America, 2020)Quantification of the interaction between river discharge and tides is vital to characterize fluvio-deltaic systems, to identify diagnostic elements of tidal signatures in the rock record, and to reconstruct paleogeographies. ... -
On the main components of landscape evolution modelling of river systems
(Springer, 2020-01-23)Currently, the use of numerical models for reproducing the evolution of river systems and landscapes is part of the day-by-day research activities of fuvial engineers and geomorphologists. However, despite landscape evolution ... -
Applying ADCPs for long term monitoring of SSC in rivers
(American Geophysical Union, 2019-12)The flow rate and the suspended sediment concentration (SSC) of two different rivers draining into the Adriatic Sea basin, the Secchia in Italy and the Devoll in Albania, were analysed by processing the data collected in ... -
Citizen science initiative for schools: EDU-ARCTIC monitoring of meteorological and phenological parameters
(2019)Citizen science is sometimes described as "public participation in scientific research," or participatory monitoring. Such initiatives help to bring research into, for example, the classroom and engage pupils in well-structured ... -
EDU-ARCTIC competitions as an effective way to increase student's interest in STEM
(2019)Competitions combined with field trips organised for students and teachers break the common format of teaching and learning in which knowledge is transferred in traditional way at the premises of schools. Science trips are ... -
Message in a stainless steel bottle thrown into deep geological time
(Elsevier, 2017-09-28)In the 60th year after the placing of the corner stone under the Polish Polar Station at Hornsund (PPSH; Spitsbergen, Svalbard, Norway), a new capsule has been laid down in the vicinity of the PPSH. It is made of stainless ... -
