Topographic expressions of mantle dynamics in the Mediterranean
C Faccenna, TW Becker - Earth-Science Reviews, 2020 - Elsevier
The surface of the Earth is the ever-changing expression of the dynamic processes
occurring at depth and at or above its surface. However, our ability to “read” landscapes in …

[HTML][HTML] Comparing methods for calculating channel steepness index
Channel steepness index, ks, is a metric derived from the stream power model that, under
certain conditions, scales with relative rock uplift rate. Channel steepness index is a property …

Tectonic deformation and landscape evolution inducing mass rock creep driven landslides: the Loumar case-study (Zagros Fold and Thrust Belt, Iran)
Several landscape evolution models have been proposed so far to explain the dynamic
feedback between Earth surface processes and tectonics in the Zagros Mountains …

The chronology and tectonic style of landscape evolution along the elevated Atlantic continental margin of South Africa resolved by joint apatite fission track and (U‐Th …
Atlantic‐type continental margins have long been considered “passive” tectonic settings
throughout the entire postrift phase. Recent studies question the long‐term stability of these …

Neogene uplift and magmatism of Anatolia: Insights from drainage analysis and basaltic geochemistry
It is agreed that mantle dynamics have played a role in generating and maintaining the
elevated topography of Anatolia during Neogene times. However, there is debate about the …

Role of dynamic topography in sustaining the Nile River over 30 million years
The Nile is the longest river on Earth and has persisted for millions of years. It has been
suggested that the Nile in its present path is~ 6 million years old, whereas others argue that …

Inversion of Dadu River bedrock channels for the late Cenozoic uplift history of the eastern Tibetan Plateau
Z Ma, H Zhang, Y Wang, Y Tao… - Geophysical Research …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract The Dadu River in the eastern Tibetan Plateau has the potential to record transient
variations of tectonic uplift since the Late Cenozoic. In this study, we extracted bedrock …

Detection of transience in eroding landscapes
SM Mudd - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Past variations in climate and tectonics have led to spatially and temporally varying erosion
rates across many landscapes. In this contribution I examine methods for detecting and …
