How do landscapes record tectonics and climate?

AC Whittaker - Lithosphere, 2012‏ - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The Earth's surface is shaped by tectonics and climate. This simple statement implies that
we should, in principle, be able to use the landscape as an archive of both tectonic rates and …

Landslide erosion controlled by hillslope material

IJ Larsen, DR Montgomery, O Korup - Nature Geoscience, 2010‏ - nature.com
