    Communicating impact risk to the public
    (Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2007-01-01) Hermelin, M.
    The first conscious recollection I have from my childhood was an aerial bombing. It was a beautiful summer afternoon in June 1940, in a small French village east of Paris. Fortunately no one in my family was hurt. During the following four years, with other children of my age, I was often pulled out from home and school by siren whistles announcing airplanes approaching. In none of these cases was there panic: the adults and children had been trained to react instantaneously and to seek refuge in vaulted cellars or in trenches. © 2007 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

    Geomorphological characteristics of the ruiz volcano and surroundings
    (Springer International Publishing, 2015-01-01) Hermelin, M.; Toro, G.; Mendez, R; Tavera, Miguel Angel
    Landforms related to the Ruiz Volcano, the northernmost active volcano in South America, are both of volcanic and glacial origins. A brief historical account includes several eruptions and culminates with the catastrophic one which occurred in November 13th, 1985. A description of the geological evolution of the area is complemented by an itinerary which will permit the observation of the more important landforms. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.

    Inselbergs near medellín
    (Springer International Publishing, 2015-01-01) García, C.; Hermelin, M.
    The northernmost part of the Central Cordillera is characterized by plateaus stretching from 1900 to 2700 m a.s.l. which were formed by erosion before the uplift of the cordillera, their different altitudes is an evidence of the successive pulses which were separated by quiet periods. One of the results of these tranquil epochs was the appearance of bornhardts at different altitude. Carved during Miocene and Pliocene in the Antioquian Batholith, a granodiorite intrusive which crystallized in the Upper Cretaceous. Main inselbergs are the Peñol de Guatapé (1900 m s.a.l.) the Tabor Mount (1880 m a.s.l.) in San Carlos and the Peñol de Entrerrios (2300 m a.s.l.). © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.

    The tatacoa desert
    (Springer International Publishing, 2015-01-01) Hermelin, M.
    The Desierto de la Tatacoa (the Tatacoa Desert), an extensive badland area related to dry climatic conditions due to a mountain barrier, lies on the eastern shore of the Magdalena River, 30 km north of Neiva, the capital of the Department (State) of Huila. It has been carved on the sub-horizontal strata of the Miocene La Victoria, Villavieja, and Gigante Formations, locally covered by Quaternary deposits. Detailed stratigraphic descriptions are available due to the presence of abundant vertebrate fossils in some of the layers. The present landscape offers a variety of landforms as badlands, pinnacles, and isolated erosional remnants forming curious figures produced by surface erosion and the different lithologies affected by the processes. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.
