Storm-triggered landslides in the Peruvian Andes and implications for topography, carbon cycles, and biodiversity [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics, 2016
In this study, we assess the geomorphic role of a rare, large-magnitude landslide-triggering event and consider its effect on mountain forest ecosystems and the erosion of organic carbon in an Andean river catchment.

Flexural isostatic response of continental-scale deltas to climatically driven sea level changes [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
The interplay between climate-forced sea level change, erosional and depositional processes, and flexural isostasy in deep time on passive margin deltas remains poorly understood.

Path length and sediment transport estimation from DEMs of difference: a signal processing approach [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
The difficulties of measuring bedload transport in gravel-bed rivers have given rise to the morphological method wherein sediment transport can be inferred from changes in riverbed elevation and estimates of the distance traveled by sediment: its path ...

Determination of Constrained Modulus of Granular Soil from In Situ Tests—Part 1 Analyses

Geotechnics, 2023
Assessing the constrained modulus is a critical step in calculating settlements in granular soils. This paper describes a novel concept of how the constrained modulus can be derived from seismic tests. The advantages and limitations of seismic laboratory
