Alpine rockwall erosion patterns follow elevation-dependent climate trajectories

D Draebing, T Mayer, B Jacobs… - Communications Earth & …, 2022 - nature.com
Mountainous topography reflects an interplay between tectonic uplift, crustal strength, and
climate-conditioned erosion cycles. During glaciations, glacial erosion increases bedrock …

Spatial and temporal variations in rockwall erosion rates derived from cosmogenic Be in medial moraines at five valley glaciers around Pigne d'Arolla, Switzerland

K Wetterauer, D Scherler - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2023 - esurf.copernicus.org
Rockwall erosion in high-alpine glacial environments varies both temporally and spatially.
Where rockwalls flank glaciers, changes in debris supply and supraglacial cover will modify …

Response of drainage pattern and basin evolution to tectonic and climatic changes along the Dinarides-Hellenides orogen

L Gemignani, BV Mittelbach, D Simon… - Frontiers in Earth …, 2022 - frontiersin.org
The junction of the Dinaric and Hellenic mountain belts hosts a trans-orogenic normal fault

[HTML][HTML] The role of frost cracking in local denudation of steep Alpine rockwalls over millennia (Eiger, Switzerland)

D Mair, A Lechmann, R Delunel… - Earth Surface …, 2020 - esurf.copernicus.org
Denudation of steep rockwalls is driven by rock fall processes of various sizes and
magnitudes. Rockwalls are sensitive to temperature changes mainly because thermo …

Fluvial bedrock gorges as markers for Late-Quaternary tectonic and climatic forcing in the Southwestern Alps

T Cardinal, C Petit, Y Rolland, L Audin, S Schwartz… - Geomorphology, 2022 - Elsevier
Fluvial incision is one of the major erosive processes acting at Earth's surface and is highly
sensitive to tectonic, isostatic and climatic variations. The aim of this study is to distinguish …

Temporal evolution of headwall erosion rates derived from cosmogenic nuclide concentrations in the medial moraines of Glacier d'Otemma, Switzerland

K Wetterauer, D Scherler, LS Anderson… - Earth Surface …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Climate change affects the stability and erosion of high‐alpine rock walls above glaciers
(headwalls) that deliver debris to glacier surfaces. Since supraglacial debris in the ablation …

Radiography using cosmic-ray electromagnetic showers and its application in hydrology

A Taketa, R Nishiyama, K Yamamoto, M Iguchi - Scientific reports, 2022 - nature.com
In-situ measurements of soil water content provide important constraints on local/global
hydrology. We demonstrate that the attenuation of the underground flux of cosmic-ray …

A Combined Cosmogenic Nuclides Approach for Determining the Temperature‐Dependence of Erosion

DP Dennis, D Scherler - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Physical weathering in cold, steep bedrock hillslopes occurs at rates that are thought to
depend on temperature, but our ability to quantify the temperature‐dependence of erosion …

Mountain surface processes and regulation

X Lu - Scientific Reports, 2021 - nature.com
Mountains cover about a quarter of the world's land surface, and directly support a
