Scientists at Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology have determined through mathematical modeling that the process of erosion optimizes the shapes of disintegrating materials. Natural wind and ...

Researchers have investigated erosion in the different kinds of limestone in the Western Wall at the foot of Jerusalem's Temple Mount. Stones made up of large crystals were almost unchanged in 2000 ...

Landslides are one striking example of erosion. When the bonds that hold particles of dirt and rock together are overwhelmed by a force -- often in the form of water -- sufficient to pull the rock and ...

As a conservationist, one word generates negative vibes for me. Thoughtless, human-caused erosion almost always wreaks havoc on the environment, and this is usually the first thing that comes to mind ...

Dr. Gusarov (Paleoclimatology, Paleoecology and Paleomagnetism Lab) has been working on erosion processes for two decades as a part of various teams. In this research, he tackled the Middle Volga ...

Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego researchers have uncovered how rain and waves act on different parts of coastal cliffs. Following three years of cliff surveys in and near the ...

A paper by Kazan University's Artyom Gusarov appeared in Science of the Total Environment. Dr. Gusarov (Paleoclimatology, Paleoecology and Paleomagnetism Lab) has been working on erosion processes for ...
