Chemical weathering can control how susceptible bedrock in river beds is to erosion, according to new research. In addition to explaining how climate can influence landscape erosion rates, the results ...
Cold, steep, high-elevation slopes with less vegetation produce coarser and larger sediment than low-elevation, gentle slopes. This finding quantifies how sediment production varies with topography ...
June 12 (UPI) --What controls the upper limits of a mountain or mountain range's height? According to a new study, it's not weathering and erosion, as many geoscientists assumed. New analysis of ...
This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; Gnaws iron, bites steel; Grinds hard stones to meal; Slays king, ruins town, And beats high mountain down. The answer to this riddle is ...
