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: 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...
