Landscape response to climate change: Insights from experimental modeling and implications for tectonic versus climatic uplift of topography

S Bonnet, A Crave - Geology, 2003 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
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

D Lague, A Crave, P Davy - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library

Plan‐form evolution of drainage basins in response to tectonic changes: Insights from experimental and numerical landscapes

K Habousha, L Goren, R Nativ… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
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 …
