Situated in the central part of the country, Chott El Jerid is the largest periodic lake in Tunisia. The depression is a flat plain lined with Holocene lacustrine sediments, which mostly developed in the form of alluvia and evaporites. Geochemical properties of sediments were tested using the following methods: FUS-ICP, TD-ICP, INAA, Cold Vapour FIMS. As concerns the basic composition, the following substances were identified (average levels): loss on ignition (LOI) пїЅ 24.27%, SiO2 пїЅ 21.46%, CaO пїЅ 20.54%, Na2...

In Poland, beavers have colonised all types of valley landscapes пїЅ from late glacial coastal lowlands and lake districts in the north of the country to upland and mountainous ones in the south. Studies of geomorphological effects of their presence in valleys of small rivers in the Oder and Vistula River basins have confirmed the results of earlier observations conducted in forest zones of North America and Europe. In Polish territory, effects of the changes related to the beaversпїЅ activities have been studied ...
