Edifice of Fluvial Terrace Flights, Stacks and Rows [PDF]
Geosciences, 2020 The paper presents a review of the architecture and structures of river deposits in valleys. A new terminology for some features is included in this review. It presents principles of the fluvial systems with morphological river terraces and fluments (new

The Turin fluvial terraces as evidence of the new Holocene setting of the Po River
Journal of Maps, 2021 A detailed geomorphological mapping of the Po River fluvial terraces into Turin was performed through a field survey. Although Turin is crossed by the Po River, most of the town is built on the extended alpine outwash fans linked to its tributaries ...

The Sendai river terraces monitored the co-seismic mega-thrusting [PDF]
Scientific 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]
Royal Society Open ScienceThe 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.

Landscape dynamics revealed by luminescence signals of feldspars from fluvial terraces. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractLuminescence signals of quartz and feldspar minerals are widely used to determine the burial age of Quaternary sediments. Although luminescence signals bleach rapidly with sunlight exposure, incomplete bleaching may affect luminescence ages, in particular in fluvial settings where an unbleached remnant signal is commonly encountered in modern ...

Late Pliocene-Pleistocene incision in the Ebro Basin (North Spain)
BSGF - 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]
Earth 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 ...

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 ...
