Drainage divide migration in response to strike-slip faulting: An example from northern Longmen Shan, eastern Tibet

X Zeng, X Tan - Tectonophysics, 2023 - Elsevier
Drainage divides can become unstable due to tectonic disturbances and therefore can be
used to constrain past tectonic activity. However, many studies have focused mainly on the …

Insights on the growth and mobility of debris flows from repeat high-resolution lidar

C Scheip, K Wegmann - Landslides, 2022 - Springer
How debris flows erode and deposit material along their paths is difficult to determine in
natural settings due to the lack of warning and the rapid pace at which they occur. Post …

Plan‐form evolution of drainage basins in response to tectonic changes: Insights from experimental and numerical landscapes
