Dynamic bedrock channel width during knickpoint retreat enhances undercutting of coupled hillslopes
The graphical abstract shows images of analogue flume experiments that highlight the width narrowing process during knickpoint retreat, and the cartoon figure shows the response of adjoining hillslopes. Abstract Mountain landscapes respond to transient tectonic and climate forcing through a bottom‐up response of enhanced bedrock river incision that ...

Microscopic time‐dependent mechanical behavior of shale derived from nanoindentation
This study conducted grid nanoindentation creep tests to systematically analyze the microscopic creep behaviors of shale. Based on the analysis of creep strain rate sensitivity, the primary mechanism of microscopic creep in shale was found to be the extension and closure of microcracks.

The Atlantic coast of NW Spain, where shingle beaches appear today, has suffered an important mobilization of dunes from a sea level about −120 m (bpsl), 20 ky ago. This aeolization caused the collapse of coastal/fluvial ecosystems (as forests) until the Late Holocene.

Higher temperature leads to a better relative sealing efficiency with a slow flow rate. Temperature change shows a negative correlation with the seepage pressure and the grouting pressure. The “equivalent grouting point offset” effect of grouting shows an eccentric elliptical propagation.

This paper uses a numerical landscape evolution model to reconstruct the topographic history of Madagascar since the Late Cretaceous. The model is optimised by balancing the volumes of onshore erosion and offshore sedimentation; the former is predicted with erosion laws and based on uplift history inferred from elevated planation surfaces.

The ground-motion simulation of regional-specific earthquake scenarios is crucial for the seismic design of key facilities. Herein, we considered parameter uncertainty in ground-motion simulations and the impact of multiple faults when determining the ...
