Un aménagement de berge antique sur l’Auron, pour la villa de Lazenay à Bourges (Cher) by Alain Ferdière, Emmanuel Marot

“…However, this riverbank development and the monumentalisation that it provides to this riverside villa also highlight the significant commercial role of the city of Bourges –the port on the Yèvre river according to the etymology of Avaricum–, in the centre of Gaul, the main boundary between the eastern and the western part of Gaul. the Yèvre river, of which the Auron river is a tributary, provides a connection with the Cher river and a connection between the Rhône-Saône axis and the lower Loire valley by avoiding the long detour of the Loire bend passing through Orléans/Cenabum.…”

Attribution Identification of Runoff Changes Based on the Budyko Elasticity Coefficient Method: A Case Study of the Middle and Upper Reaches of the Jinghe River in the Yellow River... by Xueliang Wang, Haolin Li, Weidong Huang, Lemin Wei, Junfeng Liu, Rensheng Chen

“…The impacts of climate change and human activities on water resources are a complex and integrated process and a key factor for effective water resource management in semi-arid regions, especially in relation to the Jinghe River basin (JRB), a major tributary of the Yellow River basin. The Sen’s slope estimator and the Mann–Kendall test (M–K test) are implemented to examine the spatial and temporal trends of the hydrological factors, while the elasticity coefficient method based on Budyko’s theory of hydrothermal coupling is employed to quantify the degree of runoff response to the various influencing factors, from 1971 to 2020. …”
