Title: Holocene Evolution of Low-Order Watershed Hillslopes and Soils in the SE Piedmont, NC USA
Author: Vaughan, Nora
Date Created: 2023
Subjects--Topical: Geomorphology, Soil science, Geology
Description: This study characterizes four toposequences in two first-order watersheds (4.5 and 6.2 ha) of the SE Piedmont where the entire Holocene source-to-sink system is presumably still intact. Despite a long history of soil and geomorphic research in the...

Title: LABORATORY EVALUATION OF THE UNCONFINED COMPRESSION STRENGTH OF POLYMERIC FIBER REINFORCED SOILS
Author: Kral, Robert
Date Created: 2014
Subjects--Topical: Civil engineering, Soil science, Geotechnical engineering
Description: Geosynthetic fiber reinforced soil can be used to remediate weak, near-surface soils. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact that the geofibers had on the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of various soil types. To distinguish t...

Title: POST-LAST GLACIAL MAXIMUM LANDSCAPE EVOLUTION OF THE UPPER CONEJOS RIVER BASIN, SAN JUAN MOUNTAINS, CO, USA.
Author: Aldred, Jennifer
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Geomorphology, Geology, Soil science
Description: Soil development combined with sediment storage and erosion in small, upland watersheds are key landscape processes for which assumptions are frequently made but rarely verified in landscape evolution studies. However, processes such as these, act...

Title: STRATIGRAPHY AND SOILS OF FLUVIAL TERRACES ON THE CATAWBA RIVER, NC AND SC: LANDSCAPE EVOLUTION OF THE SOUTHEASTERN US
Author: Arey, Jordan
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Geomorphology, Geology, Soil science
Description: Few studies provide data that can document the long-term landscape evolution of the Piedmont of the southeastern United States. Here we present the results of field mapping and a soil chronosequence for fluvial terraces along a ~46 km reach of the...
