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

Frontiers 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

Quaternary, 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

Revista 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

Quaternary 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

Journal 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,

Determining the Age of Terrace Formation Using Luminescence Dating—A Case of the Yellow River Terraces in the Baode Area, China

Methods and Protocols, 2020
Dating fluvial terraces has long been a challenge for geologists and geomorphologists, because terrace straths and treads are not usually directly dated.

Climate changes and the formation of fluvial terraces in central Amazonia inferred from landscape evolution modeling [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics, 2022
Climate changes have been considered an essential factor controlling the shaping of the recent alluvial landscapes in central Amazonia, with implications for explaining the biogeographic patterns in the region.

Alluvial channel response to environmental perturbations: fill-terrace formation and sediment-signal disruption [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics, 2019
The sensitivity of fluvial systems to tectonic and climatic boundary conditions allows us to use the geomorphic and stratigraphic records as quantitative archives of past climatic and tectonic conditions. Thus, fluvial terraces that form on alluvial fans
