Earth's terrestrial topography evolves in response to the interaction of tectonics, climate, and
lithology. Recent discoveries suggest that the grain size of sediments produced on hillslopes …

Rock control, the influence of rock properties on landform development, has for long been a
relatively under-researched topic, but numerous techniques have been developed …

Fractures are discontinuities in rock that can be exploited by erosion. Fractures regulate
cohesion, profoundly affecting the rate, style, and location of Earth surface processes. By …

Valley morphologies of rivers crossing zones of active uplift range from narrow canyons to
broad alluvial surfaces. They provide illuminating examples of the fundamental, but poorly …

Bedrock channel slope and width are important parameters for setting bedload transport
capacity and for stream-profile inversion to obtain tectonics information. Channel width and …

Information concerning the dynamics of river meandering is embedded in their planforms.
Here, we focus on how bend skewing varies with increasing sinuosity, and how flow …

Understanding how a bedrock river erodes its banks laterally is a frontier in geomorphology.
Theories for the vertical incision of bedrock channels are widely implemented in the current …

Models of landscape evolution by river erosion are often either transport-limited (sediment is
always available but may or may not be transportable) or detachment-limited (sediment must …

The width of fluvial valley floors is a key parameter to quantifying the morphology of
mountain regions. Valley floor width is relevant to diverse fields including sedimentology …

Mountainous landscapes often feature alluviated valleys that control both ecosystem
diversity and the distribution of human populations. Alluviated, flat valley floors also play a …
