Climate aridity delays morphological response of Andean river valleys to tectonic uplift
Abstract In the south Central Andes, a complex relationship between climate, tectonics,
erosion and topography is well documented. Building on recent advances in the mechanical …

Geomorphic indicators of continental-scale landscape transience in the Hengduan Mountains, SE Tibet, China
KD Gelwick, SD Willett, R Yang - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2024 - esurf.copernicus.org
Landscapes are sculpted by a complex response of surface processes to external forcings,
such as climate and tectonics. Several major river captures have been documented in the …

Self-organization of channels and hillslopes in models of fluvial landform evolution and its potential for solving scaling issues
S Hergarten, A Pietrek - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2023 - esurf.copernicus.org
Including hillslope processes in models of fluvial landform evolution is still challenging.
Since applying the respective models for fluvial and hillslope processes to the entire domain …

[HTML][HTML] Exploring exogenous controls on short-versus long-term erosion rates globally
Erosion is directly tied to landscape evolution through the relationship between sediment
flux and vertical lowering of the land surface. Therefore, the analysis of erosion rates across …
