Dynamics of the stream‐power river incision model: Implications for height limits of mountain ranges, landscape response timescales, and research needs
The longitudinal profiles of bedrock channels are a major component of the relief structure of
mountainous drainage basins and therefore limit the elevation of peaks and ridges. Further …

Scaling, universality, and geomorphology
Theories of scaling apply wherever similarity exists across many scales. This similarity may
be found in geometry and in dynamical processes. Universality arises when the qualitative …
