Distinguishing tectonic from climatic controls on range-front sedimentation
Geologic and chronometric studies of alluvial fan sequences in south-central Australia provide insights into the roles of tectonics and climate in continental landscape evolution.The most voluminous alluvial fans in the Flinders Ranges region have developed adjacent to catchments uplifted by Plio-Quaternary reverse faults, implying that young tectonic activity has exerted a ¢rstorder control on...
متن کاملQuantifying climatic and tectonic controls on hillslopes
Hillslopes in humid regions are typically convex to concave in profi le and have a relatively thick, continuous regolith cover. Conversely, hillslopes in arid regions are typically cliff-dominated and have a relatively thin, discontinuous regolith cover. The difference between these two end-member slope forms is classically attributed to climate, but climate, tectonics, and lithology all play a...
متن کامل3-d numerical investigation of sedimentation and its control at river lateral intakes by ssiim2 software
the intakes usually have been used in water distribution networks, irrigation channels, sewage networks, and the water/wastewater treatment facilities, etc. lack of sediment control entered to the intake channel is the main reason of entering sediments to the installation systems, which makes many problems for different parts. due to suspended particles in water, the facilities used such as pum...
متن کاملClimatic and tectonic controls on Jurassic intra-arc basins related to northward drift of North America
Upper Jurassic strike-slip intra-arc basins formed along the axis of earlier Lower to Middle Jurassic extensional intra-arc basins in Arizona. These strike-slip basins developed along the Sawmill Canyon fault zone, which may represent an inboard strand of the Mojave-Sonora megashear system that did not necessarily produce large-scale translations. Subsidence in the Lower to Middle Jurassic exte...
متن کاملTectonic Geomorphology and Volcano-Tectonic Interaction in the Eastern Boundary of the Southern Cascades (Hat Creek Graben Region), California, USA
The eastern boundary of the Southern Cascades (Hat Creek Graben region), California, USA, is an extensively faulted volcanic corridor between the Cascade Range and Modoc Plateau. The morphology of the region is a result of plate motions associated with different tectonic provinces, faulting, and recurring volcanic activity, making it an ideal place to study the interrelationship between tectoni...
