Modelling landscape evolution

GE Tucker, GR Hancock - Earth Surface Processes and …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Geomorphology is currently in a period of resurgence as we seek to explain the diversity,
origins and dynamics of terrain on the Earth and other planets in an era of increased …

On the main components of landscape evolution modelling of river systems

M Nones - Acta Geophysica, 2020 - Springer
Currently, the use of numerical models for reproducing the evolution of river systems and
landscapes is part of the day-by-day research activities of fluvial engineers and …

Topographic response to horizontal advection in normal fault‐bound mountain ranges

AM Hoskins, M Attal, SM Mudd… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Tectonic displacements consist of vertical uplift or subsidence, and horizontal advection. We
consider the effects of tectonic advection on mountain range topography, surface drainage …

Earthquake cycles in fault‐bend folds

S Sathiakumar, S Barbot… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
In fold‐and‐thrust belts and accretionary prisms, fault bends induce folding in the hanging
wall that can alter the long‐term loading rate on the megathrust and profoundly influence …

Lithologic effects on landscape response to base level changes: A modeling study in the context of the eastern Jura Mountains, Switzerland

BJ Yanites, JK Becker, H Madritsch… - Journal of …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Landscape evolution is a product of the forces that drive geomorphic processes (eg,
tectonics and climate) and the resistance to those processes. The underlying lithology and …

River patterns reveal two stages of landscape evolution at an oblique convergent margin, Marlborough Fault System, New Zealand

AR Duvall, SA Harbert, P Upton… - Earth Surface …, 2020 - esurf.copernicus.org
Here we examine the landscape of New Zealand's Marlborough Fault System (MFS), where
the Australian and Pacific plates obliquely collide, in order to study landscape evolution and …

Tectonic advection of contacts enhances landscape transience

N Mitchell, AM Forte - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Contrasts in bedrock erodibility have been shown to drive landscape transience, but it is
unclear whether horizontal tectonic displacements would enhance such effects …

Dynamic ridges and valleys in a strike‐slip environment

AR Duvall, GE Tucker - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Strike‐slip faults have long been known for characteristic near‐fault landforms such as offset
rivers and strike‐parallel valleys. In this study, we use a landscape evolution model to …

The Mountain Front Flexure in the Lurestan region of the Zagros belt: Crustal architecture and role of structural inheritances

S Tavani, G Camanni, M Nappo, M Snidero… - Journal of Structural …, 2020 - Elsevier
Abstract The Mountain Front Flexure is a major structure of the Zagros orogenic system, and
is underlain by the deeply rooted and seismically active Mountain Front Fault system. These …

A generalized power law approximation for fluvial incision of bedrock channels

NM Gasparini, MT Brandon - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Sediment flux is known to influence bedrock incision rates in mountain rivers. Although the
widely used stream power incision model lacks any explicit representation of sediment flux …
