[HTML][HTML] An extraordinary dry season precipitation event in the subtropical Andes: Drivers, impacts and predictability
A major storm impacted the subtropical Andes during 28–31 January 2021 producing 4-
days accumulated precipitation up to 100 mm over central-south Chile. These are high …

Climate aridity delays morphological response of Andean river valleys to tectonic uplift
Abstract In the south Central Andes, a complex relationship between climate, tectonics,
erosion and topography is well documented. Building on recent advances in the mechanical …

The fate of sediment after a large earthquake
Large earthquakes rapidly denude hillslopes by triggering thousands of coseismic
landslides. The sediment produced by these landslides is initially quickly mobilised from the …

Deglaciation in the subtropical Andes has led to a peak in sediment delivery
Glaciers are thinning and retreating as climate warms, thus eroding less of the Earth's
surface. However, other hydrological factors in glacierized catchments are likely producing a …

Exploring the association between landslides and fluvial suspended sediment in a semi-arid basin in central Chile
The systematic monitoring of landslides is an essential input for their characterization and
subsequent reduction of their risk. Along the western subtropical Andes, field monitoring is …

Spatial and temporal changes in suspended sediment fluxes in central Chile induced by the mega drought: The case of the Itata River Basin (36°-37° S)
Central Chile has been affected by a sustained deficit in precipitation since 2010, the so-
called mega drought, that has led to decreased water discharge in the fluvial basins of this …

Natural and anthropogenic controls on sediment rating curves in northern California coastal watersheds
The watersheds along the north coast of California span a wide range of geologic settings,
tectonic uplift rates, and historic timber harvest activity. Known trends in how each of these …

[HTML][HTML] Pulsed carbon export from mountains by earthquake-triggered landslides explored in a reduced-complexity model
In mountain ranges, earthquakes can trigger widespread landsliding and mobilize large
amounts of organic carbon by eroding soil and vegetation from hillslopes. Following a major …
