[HTML][HTML] The role of infrequently mobile boulders in modulating landscape evolution and geomorphic hazards

CM Shobe, JM Turowski, R Nativ, RC Glade… - Earth-Science …, 2021 - Elsevier
A landscape's sediment grain size distribution is the product of, and an important influence
on, earth surface processes and landscape evolution. Grains can be large enough that the …

[HTML][HTML] River widening in mountain and foothill areas during floods: Insights from a meta-analysis of 51 European Rivers

V Ruiz-Villanueva, H Piégay, V Scorpio… - Science of the Total …, 2023 - Elsevier
River widening, defined as a lateral expansion of the channel, is a critical process that
maintains fluvial ecosystems and is part of the regular functioning of rivers. However, in …

The dynamics of channel slope, width, and sediment in actively eroding bedrock river systems

BJ Yanites - Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
The evolution of rivers in eroding landscapes plays a key role in determining landscape
relief and modulating climate‐tectonic interactions. A common approach to quantifying river …

Sediment flux‐driven channel geometry adjustment of bedrock and mixed gravel–bedrock rivers

ERC Baynes, D Lague, P Steer… - Earth Surface …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Sediment supply (Qs) is often overlooked in modelling studies of landscape evolution,
despite sediment playing a key role in the physical processes that drive erosion and …

Alluvial cover controlling the width, slope and sinuosity of bedrock channels

JM Turowski - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2018 - esurf.copernicus.org
Bedrock channel slope and width are important parameters for setting bedload transport
capacity and for stream-profile inversion to obtain tectonics information. Channel width and …

Unravelling fluvial versus glacial legacy controls on boulder‐bed river geomorphology for semi‐alluvial rivers in Fennoscandia

RJ Mason, LE Polvi - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
River management is founded on predictable self‐organisation between river form and
catchment controls in alluvial rivers. However, a substantial proportion of rivers are not fully …

Quantification of bedrock structural controls of longitudinal sediment connectivity using the probability of connectivity and sediment continuity model

DT Mahoney, JF Fox - Geomorphology, 2024 - Elsevier
The structural controls of sediment connectivity are poorly understood in low-gradient
watersheds and stream networks. We developed a field-and modeling-based framework to …

H Zhang, E Kirby, J Pitlick… - Journal of …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Analysis of hillslope gradient, landscape relief, and channel steepness in the Daxia
River basin provides evidence of a transient geomorphic response to base‐level fall on the …

Mass balance, grade, and adjustment timescales in bedrock channels

JM Turowski - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2020 - esurf.copernicus.org
Rivers are dynamical systems that are thought to evolve towards a steady-state
configuration. Then, geomorphic parameters, such as channel width and slope, are constant …

Lithologic effects on landscape response to base level changes: A modeling study in the context of the eastern Jura Mountains, Switzerland

BJ Yanites, JK Becker, H Madritsch… - Journal of …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Landscape evolution is a product of the forces that drive geomorphic processes (eg,
tectonics and climate) and the resistance to those processes. The underlying lithology and …
