The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission produced the most complete, highest‐resolution
digital elevation model of the Earth. The project was a joint endeavor of NASA, the National …

Erosion of orogenic mountain ranges exhumes deeply buried rocks and controls
weathering, climate, and sediment production and transport at a variety of scales. Erosion …

The hydrological budget of Himalayan rivers is dominated by monsoonal rainfall and
snowmelt, but their relative impact is not well established because this remote region lacks a …

The pattern of fluvial incision across the Himalayas of central Nepal is estimated from the
distribution of Holocene and Pleistocene terraces and from the geometry of modern …

Simple physical arguments, analogue experiments and numerical experiments all suggest
that the internal dynamics of actively deforming collisional mountain ranges are influenced …

Large-scale topographic analyses show that hemisphere-scale climate variations are a first-
order control on the morphology of the Andes. Zonal atmospheric circulation in the Southern …

Much effort has been made in recent years to define the timing and extent of Quaternary
glaciation throughout the Himalayan–Tibetan orogen. These studies are challenging …

A geomorphic transport law is a mathematical statement derived from a physical principle or
mechanism, which expresses the mass flux or erosion caused by one or more processes in …

We review the role of landslides in current concepts of the topographic development of
mountain ranges. We find that many studies in this field address basin-or orogen-scale …
