Testing fluvial erosion models using the transient response of bedrock rivers to tectonic forcing in the Apennines, Italy [PDF]

, 2011
The transient response of bedrock rivers to a drop in base level can be used to discriminate between competing fluvial erosion models. However, some recent studies of bedrock erosion conclude that transient river long profiles can be approximately ...

Fluvial terrace formation in a mountainous area (2): influence of eustatism, tectonics and altitudinal distribution of watersheds based on an allostratigraphic study (Albania)

Comptes Rendus. Géoscience
Terraces are highly developed along the Albanian rivers and eleven levels of terraces are recognized in the area, nine occurring during the last glacial cycle (MIS 5d to end of MIS 2).

Erosive Response of Non-Glaciated Pyrenean Headwater Catchments to the Last Major Climate Transition and Establishing Interglacial Conditions

Quaternary, 2019
Non-glaciated mountain headwater catchments feature high-resolution geomorphic archives, which provide important insight into erosive processes and sediment dynamics in mountain ranges.

A Triassic chronostratigraphic and palaeogeographic framework for the Utsira High area, northern North Sea: Reconstructing a basin‐scale drainage divide

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2417-2453, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Triassic succession of the northern North Sea comprises a series of interbedded sandstones, mudstones and conglomerates deposited under a fluctuating arid to semi‐humid climate regime, which are often difficult to correlate regionally due to differing lithostratigraphic schemes and poor age control. Despite existing regional studies on the

Generation and Preservation of Submarine Terraces: Insights From Records Imprinted on the Topography of Dokdo Volcano

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Marine terraces archive sea‐level and tectonic history, yet their relationship to individual highstands remains contentious. While most studies focus on subaerial terraces in uplifting settings, submerged terraces in subsiding settings are less explored. We develop a 1‐D wave‐erosion model and apply it to Dokdo — a subsiding volcanic island in

Fluvial terrace formation in mountainous areas: (1) Influence of climate changes during the last glacial cycle in Albania

Comptes Rendus. Géoscience
This work analyses terraces formation from the case of Albanian rivers. An allostratigraphy study of the fluvial terraces is combined with new numerical dating.

K-feldspar IRSL dating of a Pleistocene river terrace staircase sequence of the Lower Tejo River (Portugal, western Iberia) [PDF]

, 2010
We present the results of K-feldspar IRSL dating of the four lower terraces (T3–T6) of the Portuguese Tejo River, in the Arripiado-Chamusca area. Terrace correlation was based upon: a) analysis of aerial photographs, geomorphological mapping and field ...

Soil genesis in a marine terrace sequence of Sicily, Italy

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
Knowledge about the rates of pedogenic processes is essential to understand landscape development and history. It can be attained by the quantitative investigation of soil chronosequences.

Contribution to the knowledge of fluvial terraces in the Červený kopec Hill in the Brno

, 2004
Contribution deals with finding of fluvial gravels of the Svratka River in the Červený kopec Hill in Brno. We consider gravels as remnants of fluvial terraces and paralelize with the level of Tuřany terrace of the Svitava River – Lower ...
