Abstract The Arabian Plateau (AP) is an Oligocene sub-horizontal regional planation surface, extending throughout the western half of the Arabian Peninsula. Its present …
Carbonate rocks are highly reactive and can have higher ratios of chemical weathering to total denudation relative to most other rock types. Their chemical reactivity affects the first …
Understanding topographic evolution requires integrating elementary processes acting at the hillslope scale into the long-wavelength framework of landscape dynamics. Recent …
The influence of the morphological setting on the denudation of carbonate landscapes and the respective contributions of mechanical and chemical weathering processes are still …
Convex, soil-covered hillslopes are ubiquitous in various tectonic and climatic settings and their morphologic characteristics can be significantly altered by dust flux and chemical …
The formation of divergent plate boundaries involves the opening of continental basins and uplift of plate margins accompanied by seawater ingression and the reorganization of …
Inland notches are elongated half tube indentations that develop on the carbonate rocky cliffs of mountainous zones. Occasionally tufa accumulates within notches as stalactites …
Three geographical factors determine the character of Israel: its location in the Mediterranean zone, at the crossroads of three continents and two oceans, and on the …
