Large earthquakes initiate chains of surface processes that last much longer than the brief
moments of strong shaking. Most moderate‐and large‐magnitude earthquakes trigger …

The fluvial archive literature is dominated by research on river terraces with appropriate
mention of adjacent environments such as lakes. Despite modern sedimentary basins …

Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Water Resources Monograph
Series, Volume 19. What are the forms and processes characteristic of mountain rivers and …

Debris flows strongly control sediment transfer patterns in mountainous catchments. We
quantify sediment transfer at the Illgraben, Switzerland, where debris flows are frequent and …

Quantitative estimates of sediment flux and the global cycling of sediments from hillslopes to
rivers, estuaries, deltas, continental shelves, and deep-sea basins have a long research …

The hazard of any natural process can be expressed as a function of its magnitude and the
annual probability of its occurrence in a particular region. Here we expand on the hypothesis …

The findings from a series of laboratory experiments designed to examine the role of
autogenic process-form interactions as controls on alluvial fan evolution are presented. The …

Alluvial fans develop their semi‐conical shape by quasi‐cyclic avulsions of their
geomorphologically active sector from a fixed fan apex. On debris‐flow fans, these quasi …

In tectonically active mountain ranges, landslides triggered by earthquakes mobilise large
volumes of sediment that affect river dynamics. This sediment delivery can cause …

The 9.5 km2 Illgraben catchment, located in the Rhône valley in the Central Alps of
Switzerland, is one of the most active debris flow torrents in the Alps. In this paper we …
