Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

As a typical intracontinental orogenic belt, the Tian Shan range is a natural lab for the
understanding of ongoing intraplate deformation and related geodynamic mechanisms …

Determining factors that modify Earth's topography is essential for understanding continental
mass and nutrient fluxes, and the evolution and diversity of species. Contrary to the …

Erosional landscapes transport sediment downstream, host natural hazards and are
geologically active. While perturbations in external forcing, particularly climate and tectonics …

Rivers are the great shapers of terrestrial landscapes. Very few points on Earth above sea
level do not lie within a drainage basin. Even points distant from the nearest channel are …

Topography is a reflection of the tectonic and geodynamic processes that act to uplift the
Earth's surface and the erosional processes that work to return it to base level. Numerous …

For over a century, geomorphologists have attempted to unravel information about
landscape evolution, and processes that drive it, using river profiles. Many studies have …

Several landscape evolution models have been proposed so far to explain the dynamic
feedback between Earth surface processes and tectonics in the Zagros Mountains …

The loss of life and economic consequences caused by several recent earthquakes
demonstrate the importance of develo** seismically safe building codes. The …

The study of drainage network response to uplift is important not only for understanding river
system dynamics and associated channel properties and fluvial landforms, but also for …
