Plate tectonic theory suggests that present-day topography can be explained by the
repeated interactions between the tectonic plates moving along Earth's surface. However …

We here review what is known about the dunefields and fluvial systems of the Kalahari
Basin in terms of geological setting and Quaternary dynamics and set out what has been …

We describe and apply a method for estimating uplift rate histories from longitudinal river
profiles. Our strategy is divided into three parts. First, we develop a forward model, which …

We use teleseismic waveform inversion, along with depth phase analysis, to constrain the
centroid depths and source parameters of large African earthquakes. The majority of seismic …

Convective circulation of the mantle causes deflections of the Earth's surface that vary as a
function of space and time. Accurate measurements of this dynamic topography are …

The lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB) remains a controversial subject in Earth
sciences, and beneath cratonic regions appears to be a particularly difficult boundary to …

Our understanding of the tectonic development of the African continent and the interplay
between its geological provinces is hindered by unevenly distributed seismic …

Many studies of elevated, passive continental margins (EPCMs) assume that their
characteristic, large-scale morphology with high-level plateaux and deeply incised valleys …

Longitudinal river profiles, where elevation of a river bed is plotted as a function of distance
along the river bed, contain information about uplift rate. When a region adjacent to a …

There are two types of emerged relief on the Earth: high elevation areas (mountain belts and
rift shoulders) in active tectonic settings and low elevation domains (anorogenic plateaus …
