Drainage divides separate Earth's surface into individual river basins. Divide migration
impacts the evolution of landforms, regional climate, ecosystems and biodiversity. In this …

Efforts to extract information about climate and tectonics from topography commonly assume
that river networks are static. Drainage divides can migrate through time, however, and …

Three themes in global mountain geomorphology have been defined and reinforced over
the past decade:(a) new ways of measuring, sensing, and analyzing mountain …

Numerical model simulations and experiments have suggested that when migration of the
main drainage divide occurs in a mountain belt, it can lead to the rearrangement of river …

Topography affects the intensity and spatial distribution of precipitation due to orographic
lifting mechanisms and, in turn, influences the prevailing climate and vegetation distribution …

Abstract The Zagros Folded belt, as one of the most tectonically active areas in the world,
contains NW–SE trending whaleback anticlines that are growing vertically and laterally …

Drainage divides are dynamic features of a landscape that migrate over time during the
development of river networks. In this study, we focused on the geomorphic response of a …

Landscape evolution models (LEMs) are essential tools for analyzing tectonic-climate
interactions and reproducing landform-shaping processes. In this study we used a LEM to …

Channel changes are receiving growing interest in relation to the relevant implications for
river management and restoration. In this kind of analysis, purely qualitative approaches …

Tectonic displacements consist of vertical uplift or subsidence, and horizontal advection. We
consider the effects of tectonic advection on mountain range topography, surface drainage …
