The “unreasonable effectiveness” of stratigraphic and geomorphic experiments
The growth of quantitative analysis and prediction in Earth-surface science has been
accompanied by growth in experimental stratigraphy and geomorphology. Experimenters …

Landscape response to climate change: Insights from experimental modeling and implications for tectonic versus climatic uplift of topography
We present the results of an experimental investigation of the concurrent action of tectonic
uplift and climate variation on relief evolution. We designed an experimental apparatus that …

Laboratory experiments simulating the geomorphic response to tectonic uplift
We present the results of an experimental study of topography dynamics under conditions of
constant precipitation and uplift rate. The experiment is designed to develop a complete …

Experimental channel response to tectonic uplift
We have performed a series of experiments to investigate the relationship between channel
geometry and tectonic forcing in steady state landscapes at various uplift rates. The …

[HTML][HTML] Analogue modelling of the interaction between tectonics, erosion and sedimentation in foreland thrust belts
The structure and dynamic evolution of a mountain belt piedmont are controlled by strong
interactions between tectonics, surface processes (erosion, sedimentation), and climate …

Plan‐form evolution of drainage basins in response to tectonic changes: Insights from experimental and numerical landscapes
Spatial gradients in rock uplift control the relief and slope distribution in uplifted terrains.
Relief and slopes, in turn, promote channelization and fluvial incision. Consequently, the …

Influence of piedmont sedimentation on erosion dynamics of an uplifting landscape: An experimental approach
Abstract Models of relief development generally assume that eroded products are evacuated
far from the landscape, whereas in nature they are often deposited at the foot of mountain …
