Mountain-front fans are an important part of the global sediment system, acting as buffers
and stores of sediment between upland sources and down-system sinks. Fans emanate …

This cutting-edge summary combines ideas from several sub-disciplines including geology,
geomorphology, oceanography and geochemistry to provide an integrated view of Earth …

East Asian monsoon variability in the Pliocene warm world has not been sufficiently studied
because of the lack of direct records. We present a high-resolution precipitation record from …

It is hotly debated whether and how climate changes are recorded by terrestrial stratigraphy.
Basin sediments produced by catchment-alluvial fan systems may record past climate over a …

The marine sedimentary record can exhibit a systematic cyclicity that is consistent with
climate variability driven by Milankovitch-scale forcing. Milankovitch-band cyclicity is widely …

Tectonics imparts a first-order control on the overall morphology of alluvial fan systems in
extensional settings by influencing sediment flux and accommodation space, while other …

The effects of climate change on eroding landscapes and the terrestrial sedimentary record
are poorly understood. Using mountain catchment–alluvial fan systems as simple analogues …

Alluvial fans are important landforms where their morphology and morphometry reflect
changes in tectonic, climate, base level, and drainage basin characteristics. Along the …

In this study, we use seismic reflection, logging and core data to investigate the depositional
systems and their controlling factors in the lower Triassic in the northwestern margin of …

Alluvial fans are usually constructed through episodic flood events. Despite the significance
of these ephemeral floods on the morphodynamics of alluvial fans, depositional responses …
