Bedrock rivers and the geomorphology of active orogens

KX Whipple - Annu. Rev. Earth Planet. Sci., 2004 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Bedrock rivers set much of the relief structure of active orogens and dictate rates
and patterns of denudation. Quantitative understanding of the role of climate-driven …

Modelling landscape evolution

The stream power river incision model: Evidence, theory and beyond

D Lague - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
The stream power incision model (SPIM) is a cornerstone of quantitative geomorphology. It
states that river incision rate is the product of drainage area and channel slope raised to the …

Landscape form and millennial erosion rates in the San Gabriel Mountains, CA

RA DiBiase, KX Whipple, AM Heimsath… - Earth and Planetary …, 2010 - Elsevier
It has been long hypothesized that topography, as well as climate and rock strength, exert
first order controls on erosion rates. Here we use detrital cosmogenic 10Be from 50 basins …

Landscape evolution models (LEMs) simulate the geomorphic development of river basins
over long time periods and large space scales (100s–1000s of years, 100s of km2). Due to …

Tectonic and lithologic controls on bedrock channel profiles and processes in coastal California

A Duvall, E Kirby, D Burbank - Journal of Geophysical …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Recent theoretical models suggest that topographic characteristics of bedrock channels are
products of interactions among tectonics, substrate resistance, and the climatically …
