Beyond the angle of repose: A review and synthesis of landslide processes in response to rapid uplift, Eel River, Northern California
In mountainous settings, increases in rock uplift are often followed by a commensurate
uptick in denudation as rivers incise and steepen hillslopes, making them increasingly prone …

Lithologically controlled subsurface critical zone thickness and water storage capacity determine regional plant community composition
Explanations for distinct adjacent ecosystems that extend across hilly landscapes typically
point to differences in climate or land use. Here we document—within a similar climate …

Increased forest ecosystem carbon and nitrogen storage from nitrogen rich bedrock
Nitrogen (N) limits the productivity of many ecosystems worldwide, thereby restricting the
ability of terrestrial ecosystems to offset the effects of rising atmospheric CO2 emissions …

Controls on the seasonal deformation of slow-moving landslides
Precipitation drives seasonal velocity changes in slow-moving landslides by increasing pore-
water pressure and reducing the effective normal stress along basal shear zones. This …

Landslides, threshold slopes, and the survival of relict terrain in the wake of the Mendocino Triple Junction
Establishing landscape response to uplift is critical for interpreting sediment fluxes, hazard
potential, and topographic evolution. We assess how landslides shape terrain in response to …
