Earthquake‐induced chains of geologic hazards: Patterns, mechanisms, and impacts

X Fan, G Scaringi, O Korup, AJ West… - Reviews of …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Large earthquakes initiate chains of surface processes that last much longer than the brief
moments of strong shaking. Most moderate‐and large‐magnitude earthquakes trigger …

Times associated with source-to-sink propagation of environmental signals during landscape transience

S Tofelde, A Bernhardt, L Guerit… - Frontiers in Earth …, 2021 - frontiersin.org
Sediment archives in the terrestrial and marine realm are regularly analyzed to infer

The gravel-sand transition and grain size gap in river bed sediments

EH Dingle, KM Kusack, JG Venditti - Earth-Science Reviews, 2021 - Elsevier
River bed sediments typically fine downstream, where fining of median grain sizes are often
described as exponential, except where fine gravel abruptly transitions to sand. Across the …

Tectonic accretion controls erosional cyclicity in the Himalaya

SK Mandal, D Scherler, H Wittmann - AGU Advances, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
The evolution of Earth's climate over geological timescales is linked to surface erosion via
weathering of silicate minerals and burial of organic carbon. However, methodological …

Alluvial cover controlling the width, slope and sinuosity of bedrock channels

JM Turowski - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2018 - esurf.copernicus.org
Bedrock channel slope and width are important parameters for setting bedload transport
capacity and for stream-profile inversion to obtain tectonics information. Channel width and …

Long-profile evolution of transport-limited gravel-bed rivers

AD Wickert, TF Schildgen - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2019 - esurf.copernicus.org
Alluvial and transport-limited bedrock rivers constitute the majority of fluvial systems on

Sediment dynamics across gravel-sand transitions: Implications for river stability and floodplain recycling

EH Dingle, HD Sinclair, JG Venditti, M Attal… - …, 2020 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The gravel-sand transition (GST) is commonly observed along rivers. It is characterized by
an abrupt reduction in median grain size, from gravel-to sand-size sediment, and by a shift in …

Downvalley fining of hillslope sediment in an alpine catchment: implications for downstream fining of sediment flux in mountain rivers

LS Sklar, CS Riebe, J Genetti… - Earth Surface …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
