This review aims to synthesize the current knowledge of sediment dynamics using insights
from long‐term research conducted in the watershed draining to the Chesapeake Bay, the …

Luminescence holds unique potential as a sediment tracer and provenance method. The
tracer application of luminescence has key advantages including ease of measurement …

The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM;~ 55.9 Ma) was a geologically rapid
warming period associated with carbon release, which caused a marked increase in the …

Climate, tectonics, and life influence the flux and caliber of sediment transported across
Earth's surface. These environmental conditions can leave behind imprints in the Earth's …

Cosmogenic nuclide analysis in sediment from the Earth's largest rivers yields mean
denudation rates of the sediment-producing areas that average out the local variations …

Stream geomorphic change is highly spatially variable but critical to landform evolution,
human infrastructure, habitat, and watershed pollutant transport. However, measurements …

The mass of carbon stored as organic matter in terrestrial systems is sufficiently large to play
an important role in the global biogeochemical cycling of CO 2 and O 2. Field measurements …

Channel migration is the primary mechanism of floodplain turnover in meandering rivers and
is essential to the persistence of riparian ecosystems. Channel migration is driven by river …

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 …

The Anthropocene has been proposed as a profound, globally synchronous rupture in the
history of the Earth System with its current state fundamentally different to that of the …
