The causes of terrace formation in active orogenic belts have long been studied. Here, we
present a synthesis of 147 available papers on the ages of Quaternary terraces within the …

The investigations of active deformation across a mountain foreland can provide important
insights into the pattern and dynamics of deformation of an active orogenic belt. Here we …

Catastrophic rock avalanches are widely distributed on Earth and share a series of common
diagnostic features that play a vital role in revealing their emplacement mechanisms …

Abstract The Pamir‐Tian Shan collision zone in the western Tarim Basin, northwest China,
formed from rapid and ongoing convergence in response to the Indo‐Eurasian collision. The …

Abstract The Pamir Frontal Thrust along the leading edge of the northern Pamir is
characterized by multiple earthquakes with moment magnitudes of 6.5–7.1. Geometric …

Fluvial terraces carved by incising rivers are widely used to investigate external forcing by
climate and tectonics. In the Eastern Tian Shan (Central Asia), the north piedmont rivers are …

Abstract The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, like other heavily engineered deltas
throughout the world, has undergone substantial subsidence since the late 1800s when the …

River-incision rate is widely used to track changes in tectonics or climate over time and
space. However, the feasibility of utilizing the spatial variations of river incision to reconstruct …

Fluvial planation surfaces, such as straths, commonly serve as recorders of climatic and
tectonic changes and are formed by the lateral erosion of rivers, a process that remains …

Cosmogenic burial dating enables dating of coarse-grained, Pliocene–Pleistocene
sedimentary units that are typically difficult to date with traditional methods, such as …
