An integral approach to bedrock river profile analysis
Bedrock river profiles are often interpreted with the aid of slope–area analysis, but noisy
topographic data make such interpretations challenging. We present an alternative …

Mass wasting triggered by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake is greater than orogenic growth
Shallow earthquakes are the primary driver of rock uplift in mountain ranges. However, large
shallow earthquakes also trigger widespread, coseismic landslides that cause significant but …

Bedrock rivers and the geomorphology of active orogens
KX Whipple - Annu. Rev. Earth Planet. Sci., 2004 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Bedrock rivers set much of the relief structure of active orogens and dictate rates
and patterns of denudation. Quantitative understanding of the role of climate-driven …
