The Sendai river terraces monitored the co-seismic mega-thrusting [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
We conducted a detailed geological survey of the Sendai region, covering an area of 100 × 50 km. Our survey focused on accurately mapping river terraces, identifying the source volcanoes responsible for intercalated tephras, and locating the Nagamachi ...

The river Dniester valley: a long record of late-Cenozoic fluvial evolution within the Eastern Carpathian foreland and East European Platform margin [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
The Dniester valley is a spectacular example of a degrading bedrock fluvial system at the contact between the East European platform and the Carpathian orogen. This study is based upon a combined lithofacies–architecture–morphological study.

Enhancing the Identification and Mapping of Fluvial Terraces Combining Geomorphological Field Survey with Land-Surface Quantitative Analysis

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
A methodological approach to refining the identification and mapping of fluvial terraces has been applied, combining geomorphological field surveys with the computation and assessment of different morphometric parameters (local, statistical, and object ...

Late Pliocene-Pleistocene incision in the Ebro Basin (North Spain)

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2021
The Ebro Basin constitutes the central part of the southern foreland of the Pyrenees. It was endorheic during the Cenozoic and accumulated sediments. By the end of the Miocene, erosion and river incision reconnected the basin to the Mediterranean Sea ...

A multi-proxy assessment of terrace formation in the lower Trinity River valley, Texas [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2022
A proposed null hypothesis for fluvial terrace formation is that internally generated or autogenic processes, such as lateral migration and river-bend cutoff, produce variabilities in channel incision that lead to the abandonment of floodplain segments ...

Optical Dating of Quartz Grains From the Minjiang Fluvial Terraces in the Sonpan Area on the Eastern Margin of the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The fluvial terraces along the banks of the Minjiang River are very important for understanding the tectonic activities of the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and have been widely investigated.

First Chronological Constraints for the High Terraces of the Upper Ebro Catchment

open access: yesQuaternary, 2021
The Cenozoic sedimentary basins in the Iberian Peninsula show a change from long-term basin infill to incision, a transition that indicates a period of major drainage reorganization that culminated in the throughflow of the networks to the Atlantic and ...

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) in the surficial cover analysis of the low fluvial-marine terraces in the southern coast of São Paulo state, Brazil

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Geomorfologia, 2022
The Ribeira de Iguape estuarine system in Southeastern Brazil has resulted from the complex interactions betweenallogenic (climate, tectonics, and human interventions) and autogenic geomorphological processes.

Lateral variations in sedimentation records along the strike length of North Almora Thrust: Central Kumaun Himalaya

open access: yesQuaternary Science Advances, 2020
The present study has been carried out with special emphasis on the spatial and temporal variability of sedimentary architecture along the strike length of North Almora Thrust (NAT). Here, we investigated fluvial terraces along Saryu, Jaigan, Kosi, Gagas,

Paleoglacial footprint and fluvial terraces of the Shaluli Shan, SE Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2021
This study provides mapping of glacial and fluvial geomorphology in the Shaluli Shan region on the eastern margin of the south-eastern Tibetan Plateau. Based on TanDEM-X 12 m elevation data and GoogleEarth imagery, glacial valleys, ice-marginal moraines,
