The null hypothesis: globally steady rates of erosion, weathering fluxes and shelf sediment accumulation during Late Cenozoic mountain uplift and glaciation
JK Willenbring, DJ Jerolmack - Terra Nova, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
At the largest time and space scales, the pace of erosion and chemical weathering is
determined by tectonic uplift rates. Deviations from equilibrium arise from the transient …
