Fluvial erosion/transport equation of landscape evolution models revisited
[1] We present a mesoscale erosion/deposition model, which differs from previous landscape evolution models equations by taking explicitly into account a mass balance equation for the streamflow. The geological and hydrological complexity is lumped into two basic fluxes (erosion and deposition) and two averaged parameters (unit width discharge q and stream slope s). The model couples the dynami...
متن کاملLarge Scale Terrain Generation from Tectonic Uplift and Fluvial Erosion
At large scale, landscapes result from the combination of two major processes: tectonics which generate the main relief through crust uplift, and weather which accounts for erosion. This paper presents the first method in computer graphics that combines uplift and hydraulic erosion to generate visually plausible terrains. Given a user-painted uplift map, we generate a stream graph over the enti...
متن کاملA Fluvial Record of Long-term Steady-state Uplift and Erosion across the Cascadia Forearc High, Western Washington State
Six late Quaternary river terraces, preserved along the Clearwater River in northwestern Washington State, provide a ;140 ka record of long-term incision and uplift across the western side of the Cascadia forearc high. Terrace ages are constrained by weathering rind and radiocarbon dating and by correlation to dated coastal glacio-fluvial deposits and the global eustatic curve. The terraces ove...
متن کاملAssessing the relative efficiency of fluvial and glacial erosion through simulation of fluvial landscapes
The relative rates of erosion by rivers and glaciers, and the topographic effects of these two different styles of erosion, remain outstanding problems in geomorphology. We use a quantitative description of local fluvial landscapes to estimate how glaciated landscapes might look now had glaciers not developed. This indicates the landscape modification attributable to glacial erosion. We present...
متن کاملa comparative move analysis of the introduction sections of ma theses by iranian and native post-graduate students
since esp received universal attention to smooth the path for academic studies and productions, a great deal of research and studies have been directed towards this area. swales’ (1990) model of ra introduction move analysis has served a pioneering role of guiding many relevant studies and has proven to be productive in terms of helpful guidelines that are the outcome of voluminous productions ...
