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 …

Channel steepness index, ks, is a metric derived from the stream power model that, under
certain conditions, scales with relative rock uplift rate. Channel steepness index is a property …

Quantitative analysis of digital topographic data is an increasingly important part of many
studies in the geosciences. Initially, performing these analyses was a niche endeavor …

Three continent‐scale shear zones are arguably the most outstanding structural features in
the southeastern Tibetan Plateau, and therefore, their tectonic and landscape evolution …

Evidence from landscape evolution may provide critical constraints for past geodynamic
processes, but has been limited by the large uncertainties of topographic reconstructions …

Landscape evolution models that invert topography for rock uplift can improve our
understanding of both tectonic and geomorphic processes when properly constrained with …

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 …

Drainage divides are dynamic features of a landscape that migrate over time during the
development of river networks. In this study, we focused on the geomorphic response of a …

River networks are striking features engraved into the surface of the Earth, shaped by uplift
and erosion under the joint influence of climate and tectonics. How a river's gradient …

Transient topography represents an opportunity for extracting information on the combined
effect of tectonics, mantle-driven processes, lithology and climate across different temporal …
