Tectonic and climatic controls on knickpoint retreat rates and landscape response times
AC Whittaker, SJ Boulton - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
The rate at which transient knickpoints propagate through a landscape fundamentally

Dynamic interactions of life and its landscape: feedbacks at the interface of geomorphology and ecology
There appears to be no single axis of causality between life and its landscape, but rather,
each exerts a simultaneous influence on the other over a wide range of temporal and spatial …

Differentiating geology and tectonics using a spatial autocorrelation technique for the hypsometric integral
JV Pérez‐Peña, JM Azañón… - Journal of …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library

Detection of transience in eroding landscapes
SM Mudd - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Past variations in climate and tectonics have led to spatially and temporally varying erosion
rates across many landscapes. In this contribution I examine methods for detecting and …
