An exploratory study of the morphologic, hydraulic, and sedimentologic response of five
rivers to active tectonic deformation suggests that increased or decreased sediment …

The major goal of this book is to bring together evidence of active deformation on alluvial
rivers, with emphasis on geomorphological adjustment. The authors have grouped their …

Alluvial rivers respond to valley-slope deformation caused by active tectonics in various
ways depending on the rate and amount of surficial deformation and on the type of river. On …

Tectonic control of alluvial architecture is commonplace in extensional, transcurrent and
compressional tectonic terrains. The primary influence of tectonic activity on floodplain …

Alluvial rivers are influenced by changes of valley floor slope, and therefore deformation of
the valley floor by active tectonics can cause pattern change, aggradation, and degradation …

Rivers are extremely sensitive to subtle changes in their grade caused by tectonic tilting. As
such, recognition of tectonic tilting effects on rivers, and their resultant sediments, can be a …

Dredging and straightening of alluvial channels between 1959 and 1978 in West Tennessee
caused a series of morphologic changes along modified reaches and tributary streams …

The alluvial and morphologic details of drainage systems are much too complex to be
explained by progressive erosion alone. Within the constraints of the erosion cycle these …

The analysis of earth surface systems is complicated by mutual adjustments among
geomorphic variables. Most statistical models used by geomorphologists implicitly assume …

Three numerical experiments have been performed, modeling response of a greatly
simplified stream system to initiation of crustal tilting and domal uplift. Model results show …
