SpringerBriefs in Earth System Sciences present concise summaries of cutting-edge research and practical applications. The series focuses on interdisciplinary research linking the lithosphere, atmosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, and hydrosphere building the system earth. It publishes peer-reviewed monographs under the editorial supervision of an international advisory board with the aim to publish 8 to 12 weeks after acceptance. Featuring compact volumes of 50 to 125 pages (approx. 20,000-70,000 words), the series covers a range of content from professional to academic such as:• A timely reports of state-of-the art analytical techniques • bridges between new research results • snapshots of hot and/or emerging topics • literature reviews • in-depth case studies Briefs are published as part of Springer's eBook collection, with millions of users worldwide. In addition, Briefs are available for individual print and electronic purchase.

Al Jabal Akhdar Mountain suffered by numerous tectonic events throughout the geologic time, these events are most affected on the earth surface features. Wadi Sidi Moussa is one of the longest observable wadies that cut the lower escarpment, this wadi being having distributed fluvial terraces in different parts and locations. These terraces are shown with obvious variation in their elevations, some being higher, while others abruptly decreased in steps like behavior, where a series of steps and surfaces developed above and below the escarpment. Logically these terraces are explainable of odd and non-natural occurring, hence the fluvial terraces in the wadi attributed and interpreted as of a terraces of a tectonic control, and ascribed to the effects of one of those tectonic episodes. Wadi Sidi Moussa due the fluvial terraces in this investigation can be considered as one of those morphotectonic valleys in Al Jabal Al Akhdar Mountain.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
