In many landscapes across the world, bedrock rivers represent the first domino to fall in the series of events required to cause broad landscape trans...

River valley widening rates are often attributed to rock wall erodibility. Here, we test the alternate hypothesis that rock wall fracture patterns, ra...

Understanding how bedrock canyons evolve into wide bedrock valleys is a frontier in geomorphology. Valley width is largely controlled by lithology and...

The Arctic is warming rapidly, which is leading to accelerated permafrost thaw and erosion on upland landscapes through a combination of landslides, d...

Climate change in the Arctic accelerates changes in already dynamic landscapes, increasing permafrost degradation and upland erosion and transport fro...

Recent field studies indicate that wind energy transmitted by plant roots is an important yet unquantified driver of physical weathering and soil prod...

Although it can seem intuitive that rock hardness is the primary control on bedrock valley widening, variations in valley width can occur even when ro...

Recent research has increasingly revealed the importance of biota in Critical Zone geomorphic processes such as weathering and mass movement. While ve...
