Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2020 The lower Gállego River has been strongly degraded since the 1960s due to human activity (gravel mining, dump accumulation, channeling works), which has produced a deep channel incision.

Climate changes and the formation of fluvial terraces in central Amazonia [PDF]
, 2021 Abstract. Climate changes have been considered as an essential factor controlling the shaping of the recent alluvial landscapes in central Amazonia, with implications for explaining the biogeographic patterns in the region. This landscape is characterized by wide floodplains and various terrace levels at different elevations.

Single-grain OSL dating of fluvial terraces in the upper Hunter catchment, southeastern Australia
Quaternary Geochronology, 2019 Fluvial terraces in the upper Hunter catchment, southeastern Australia provide a long-term record of river activity in response to climate change in the late Quaternary. Single-grain optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating of quartz was applied in

Quaternary, 2023 Fluvial terrace formation is a complex process governed by the interplay of climatic and tectonic forcings. From a climatic perspective, an incision is usually related to climatic transitions, while valley aggradation is attributed to glacial periods. We

The Sendai river terraces monitored the co-seismic mega-thrusting
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 ...
