Steep landscapes evolve largely by debris flows, in addition to fluvial and hillslope
processes. Abundant field observations document that debris flows incise valley bottoms …

Hilltop curvature (CHT) can record erosional responses to tectonic forces and/or climate
change. Although CHT has a linear relationship with the erosion rate, which is a significant …

Tectonic plate motion, and the resulting change in land surface elevation, has been shown
to have a fundamental impact on landscape morphology. Changes to uplift rates can drive a …

Stream networks are highly abundant across Earth's surface, reflecting the tectonic and
climatic history under which they have developed. Recent studies suggest that branching …

Mountain landscapes respond to transient tectonic and climate forcing through a bottom‐up
response of enhanced bedrock river incision that undermines adjoining hillslopes, thus …

Estimation of erosion rate is an important component of landscape evolution studies,
particularly in settings where transience or spatial variability in uplift or erosion generates …

Fluvial morphology is affected by a wide range of forcing factors, which can be external,
such as faulting and changes in climate, or internal, such as variations in rock hardness or …

Documenting the spatial variability of tectonic processes from topography is routinely
undertaken through the analysis of river profiles, since a direct relationship between fluvial …

The morphology of the Zagros Fold and Thrust Belt (ZFTB) tectonic region results from the
collision between the Arabian and Eurasian plates. In addition to the variation in rock types …

Drainage basins are fundamental units of Earth's surface, describing how flows accumulate
across landscapes. They are direct expressions of how tectonics and climatic forces alter …
