The stream power river incision model: Evidence, theory and beyond

D Lague - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
The stream power incision model (SPIM) is a cornerstone of quantitative geomorphology. It
states that river incision rate is the product of drainage area and channel slope raised to the …

Topography of mountain belts controlled by rheology and surface processes

SG Wolf, RS Huismans, J Braun, X Yuan - Nature, 2022 - nature.com
It is widely recognized that collisional mountain belt topography is generated by crustal
thickening and lowered by river bedrock erosion, linking climate and tectonics,,–. However …

Topographic outcomes predicted by stream erosion models: Sensitivity analysis and intermodel comparison

GE Tucker, KX Whipple - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
Mechanistic theories of fluvial erosion are essential for quantifying large‐scale orogenic
denudation. We examine the topographic implications of two leading classes of river erosion …

Long‐term landscape evolution: linking tectonics and surface processes

P Bishop - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms: the …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
Research in landscape evolution over millions to tens of millions of years slowed
considerably in the mid‐20th century, when Davisian and other approaches to …

[LIBRO][B] Sediment routing systems: The fate of sediment from source to sink

PA Allen - 2017 - books.google.com
This cutting-edge summary combines ideas from several sub-disciplines including geology,

Discharge, discharge variability, and the bedrock channel profile

D Lague, N Hovius, P Davy - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Long‐term bedrock incision is driven by daily discharge events of variable magnitude and
frequency, with ineffective events below an incision threshold. We explore theoretically how …

Estimating uplift rate histories from river profiles using African examples

GG Roberts, N White - Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
We describe and apply a method for estimating uplift rate histories from longitudinal river
profiles. Our strategy is divided into three parts. First, we develop a forward model, which …

Erosion of steepland valleys by debris flows

JD Stock, WE Dietrich - Geological Society of America …, 2006 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Episodic debris flows scour the rock beds of many steepland valleys. Along recent debris-
flow runout paths in the western United States, we have observed evidence for bedrock …
