Effects of Erosion and Deposition on Constraining Vertical Slip Rates of Thrust Faults: A Case Study of the Minle–Damaying Fault in the North Qilian Shan, NE Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The height of a thrust-fault scarp on a fluvial terrace would be modified due to erosion and deposition, and these surface processes can also influence the dating of terraces.

Fluvial terraces of the northwest Iberian lower Miño River

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2013
A new fluvial terrace map with a tectonic framework for the northwest Iberian lower Miño River is presented. It is the first integrated map to cover the entire lower, 67-km reach of the Miño River, and to cover both the Spanish and Portuguese side of the river.

SEDIMENTS AND AGE OF TERRACES AND FLOODPLAINS OF THE EZOUSAS RIVER IN SW CYPRUS [PDF]

open access: yesActa Geobalcanica, 2021
Since 2014 Jan Kochanowski University in Kielce participate in the research in Paphos region in SW Cyprus. The aim of geomorphologic study was the age and sediments of terraces and floodplains in Ezousas river valley.

GEOCHRONOLOGY AND HYDRODYNAMIC ENERGY CONDITIONS IN SURFACE COVERINGS OF LOW HOLOCENE FLUVIAL, FLUVIAL-MARINE, AND MARINE TERRACES: CLIMATIC PULSATIONS TO THE SOUTH OF THE ARANGUAGUÁ RIVER BASIN (SC)

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Geomorfologia, 2018
This research aims to perform the geochronology of surface coverings in low Holocene marine, fluvial-marine, and fluvial terraces, associating the genesis of paleo-forms with the occurrence of Holocene climatic pulsations, the consequential switches ...

Morphometric analysis of urban fluvial terraces using UAV LiDAR: A case study from the Santa Catarina River, Mexico [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
This study analyzes the geomorphological evolution of fluvial terraces along the urban section of the Santa Catarina River (Nuevo León, México) by integrating high-resolution UAV-based LiDAR and photogrammetry.

Sedimentation and geomorphology of the Ruoergai Basin outlet reach at the source of the Yellow River: Response to the late quaternary glacial debris flow damming events

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Fluvial terraces in the source of the Yellow River suggest that Ruoergai Basin was connected with the lower reach after ∼10 ka, much younger than the uplift chronology of the Tibetan Plateau.

Luminescence Ages of Feldspar Contaminated Quartz from Fluvial Terrace Sediments [PDF]

open access: yesGeochronometria, 2008
This study focuses on obtaining luminescence ages in feldspar contaminated quartz from well-developed fluvial terraces of the Yesilirmak (Iris) river located inside the eastern North Anatolian Fault Shear Zone (NAFZ). We applied a technique based on conventional single-aliquot regenerative-dose (SAR) protocol, modified with an IR pre-treatment to ...

Dynamic changes in the lower Gállego River (Ebro Basin, NE Spain) and their relationship with anthropic activities and the quaternary substrate

open access: yesCuadernos 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.

On the potential for regolith control of fluvial terrace formation in semi-arid escarpments [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2015
Abstract. Cut–fill terraces occur throughout the western Andes, where they have been associated with pluvial episodes on the Altiplano. The mechanism relating increased rainfall to sedimentation is, however, not well understood. Here, we apply a hillslope sediment model and reported cosmogenic nuclide concentrations in terraces to examine terrace ...

A Mechanism of Formaticn of Fluvial Terraces

open access: yesThe Quaternary Research (Daiyonki-Kenkyu), 1966
Two examples of microtopography of fluvial terrace plains are described from the River Shinano, central Japan (Figs. 2 and 3). The topography consists of narrow, shallow depression beneath the backward scarp, and of low swells in front of the depression. They are regarded as abandoned channels and old meander-channel bars, respectively. Another example
