How erosion shapes dynamic Quaternary mountain environments: A review

open access: yesQuaternary Science Advances, 2023
Erosion is a key driver of mountain topography and landform/landscape heterogeneity in the Quaternary. While uncertainty persists on the precise relationship between erosion and uplift, a number of recent studies converge on the important insight that ...

Geomorphology of the Kaikoura area [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
The major physiographic units in the Kaikoura area are the Peninsula Block, Beach Ridges and Raised Beaches, Hard Rock Areas and the Alluvial Fans. Erosion of the Seaward Kaikoura Mountains and the transfer of the debris to the sea by fan streams have ...

Glacial geomorphology of the High Gredos Massif: Gredos and Pinar valleys (Iberian Central System, Spain)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2020
We present a detailed geomorphological map of the landform assemblages originated by the two major paleoglaciers of the Sierra de Gredos mountain range in the Spanish Iberian Central System. Based on previous works, our map focused on the features formed

Combination of Aerial, Satellite, and UAV Photogrammetry for Quantifying Rock Glacier Kinematics in the Dry Andes of Chile (30°S) Since the 1950s

open access: yesFrontiers in Remote Sensing, 2021
The diachronic analysis of aerial and satellite imagery, uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) and in situ surveys obtained between 1956 and 2019 are employed to analyse landform surface kinematics for the Tapado site located in the Dry Andes of Chile. A feature

Asynchronous glacier dynamics during the Antarctic Cold Reversal in central Patagonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We present 14 new 10Be cosmogenic nuclide exposure ages quantifying asynchronous readvances during the Antarctic Cold Reversal from glaciers in the Baker Valley region of central Patagonia.

The mixed‐bed glacial landform imprint of the North Sea Lobe in the western North Sea

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2019
During the last glacial cycle an intriguing feature of the British‐Irish Ice Sheet was the North Sea Lobe (NSL); fed from the Firth of Forth and which flowed south and parallel to the English east coast. The controls on the formation and behaviour of the

The glacial geomorphology of western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2020
Reconstructing the response of present-day ice sheets to past global climate change is important for constraining and refining the numerical models which forecast future contributions of these ice sheets to sea-level change.

Glacial processes and landforms

open access: yesGeological Society, London, Memoirs, 2021
Abstract From 1965 to 2000 glacial geomorphology became increasingly specialized and developed significantly due to technological improvements, particularly in remote sensing, surveying and field-based glaciological process studies. The better understanding of basal thermal regimes in ice sheets and glaciers led to the development of concepts
