Characteristics of loess seismic subsidence and corresponding micro-zonation for the Fuping Country, Shaanxi

Zhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao, 2023
Typical loess generally shows the property of strong seismic subsidence due to its special microstructure characteristics. Fuping County which is located in the connection zone of Weihe Basin and Ordos Platform possesses complex seismic tectonic settings,

Analysis tectonic role in river terraces geomorphologic evolution Ghezel Owzan [PDF]

نشریه جغرافیا و برنامه‌ریزی, 2018
Review of river terraces is main issues related to river geomorphology. They are areas with low slope that is parallel to the axis of the river valley and are in the higher levels of the river bed and created through cutting the river bed and response to

Features of terraces and the incision rate along the lower reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River east of Namche Barwa: Constraints on tectonic uplift

Open Geosciences, 2020
Along the lower reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River, scattered alluvium sections appear on T1 and T2 terraces. The alluvial deposits on the T1 terrace in Linduo and Ximogou and the T2 terrace in Guoguotang are composed principally of coarse-grained sand ...

Chemical weathering as a tool for distinguishing river terraces of varying ages: a case study of the Qingyi River on the eastern Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Earth Science
River terraces are essential objects for studying Quaternary landforms and active tectonics. Previous researchers often identified river terraces formed in different eras by height and landmark strata.

Hillslope Sediment Supply Limits Alluvial Valley Width

AGU Advances, 2022
River‐valley morphology preserves information on tectonic and climatic conditions that shape landscapes. Observations suggest that river discharge and valley‐wall lithology are the main controls on valley width.
