The relationship between active faulting and fluvial geomorphology: a case study in the Gediz Graben, Turkey.
… and the landscape, specifically involving the fluvial network, is a relatively new area of study. Previous work has highlighted the value of understanding how the fluvial network responds to active tectonics, showing that a comprehensive understanding of the dynamic relationship between fluvial …

Influence of spatially variable precipitation on passive margin escarpment evolution
… challenges conventional understanding of fluvial erosion. Typical explanations for passive margin escarpments rely on lithospheric flexure and fluvial network geometry. I suggest a role for interactions between climate and landscape evolution motivated by the Western Ghats of India. The …

Late Cenozoic uplift of southeastern Tibet
… product of landscape dissection and reduction by fluvial incision due to the presence of major rivers which drain this portion of the plateau and plateau margins. Although initial development of the erosion surface is likely diachronous, we propose that a continuous low-relief landscape existed at …

Rates and patterns of temperature mixing at a small stream confluence under variable incoming flow conditions
River confluences are locations in the fluvial network where two incoming flows, often with distinct chemical, thermal, and physical properties, converge and start to mix. The degree of mixing that occurs within a confluence influences ecological and water quality conditions locally as well as …

Comparison of Flow Dynamics and Bifurcation Angles in Tributary and Distributary Channel Networks
… using theory developed in tributary channel networks. Bifurcations in groundwater-fed tributary networks have been shown to evolve dependent on diffusive ground water flow patterns</p> <p>directly adjacent to the channel network, producing a critical angle of 72°. We test the hypothesis that …
