Simulating internal and external controls on fluvial terrace stratigraphy: a qualitative comparison with the Maas record

Geomorphology, 2000
Palaeohydrological studies indicate that the use of sedimentary palaeoclimatic indicators in fluvial sediments still requires rigorous calibration of the climatic controls on the formation of those indicators. An explorative attempt is made using a simulation experiment with the FLUVER2 model.

Late Quaternary fluvial terrace evolution in the main southern Amazonian tributary

CATENA, 2014
Abstract Late Quaternary sedimentary deposits from Amazonian lowlands are important geological archives for understanding the origin, evolution and controls of the largest fluvial drainage basin on Earth. Climate has been most often claimed as the main factor affecting river evolution in this region.

River terrace development by concurrent fluvial processes and climatic changes

Geomorphology, 1993
Abstract Along the Usui River in central Japan, three well-developed terrace levels are observed. Each terrace is subdivided into two segments: a filltop terrace along the upper reach and a strath terrace along the lower one. Three valley fillings with coarse gravel beds in the upper reach correspond to the last three glacial ages.

Pleistocene tectonics inferred from fluvial terraces of the northern Upper Rhine Graben, Germany

Tectonophysics, 2007
This study of fluvial terraces of the River Rhine and tributaries aims to search for indications of Pleistocene tectonic activity. The study area includes the northern Upper Rhine Graben (URG), the Mainz Basin and the adjacent Rhenish Massif with the Middle Rhine Valley.

Ultramafic Aridisols on a sequence of fluvial terraces in Baja California

Geoderma Regional, 2019
Abstract Practically all arid ultramafic soils in North America are in Baja California. An arid watershed in Baja California was found to have terraces with soil parent materials dominated by serpentinized peridotite. The soils on a sequence of four fluvial surfaces in the watershed were studied in order to trace the path of serpentine soil ...

Cosmogenic dating of fluvial terraces in the Sorbas Basin, SE Spain

2014
Long term fluvial incision spanning the Late Cenozoic is recorded in many fluvial systems around the world by terrace landform sequences. The incision manifests itself as inset sequences of river terraces which form terrace staircases. The timing of the onset of incision and the rate incision then proceeds at is poorly constrained due to the ...

The impact of river capture on fluvial terraces and bedrock incision

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms
AbstractRiver terraces are commonly used to infer climate and tectonic histories. Yet, it is increasingly recognised that other processes, such as river capture, can affect river terrace genesis and incision rates and patterns. In this study, we conduct a field‐based investigation of river terrace sequences along the Kolokithas and Varitis Rivers in ...
