• Controls on the lateral channel-migration rate of braided channel systems in coarse non-cohesive sediment 

      Bufe, AaronORCIDiD; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD; Burbank, Douglas W.; Paola, ChrisORCIDiD; Wickert, Andrew D.ORCIDiD; Tofelde, StefanieORCIDiD (Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2019)
      Lateral movements of alluvial river channels control the extent and reworking rates of alluvial fans, floodplains, deltas, and alluvial sections of bedrock rivers. These lateral movements can occur by gradual channel ...
    • Deriving Debris‐Flow Dynamics From Real‐Time Impact‐Force Measurements 

      Yan, YanORCIDiD; Tang, HuiORCIDiD; Hu, KaihengORCIDiD; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD; Wei, FangqiangORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2023-03-21)
      Understanding the impact forces exerted by debris flows is limited by a lack of direct field measurements and validated numerical models. In this study, we use real‐time impact‐force measurements and field observations of ...
    • Grain‐Size Distribution and Propagation Effects on Seismic Signals Generated by Bedload Transport 

      Lagarde, SophieORCIDiD; Dietze, MichaelORCIDiD; Gimbert, FlorentORCIDiD; Laronne, Jonathan B.ORCIDiD; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD; Halfi, EranORCIDiD (Water Resources Research, 2021-04-02)
      Bedload transport is a key process in fluvial morphodynamics, but difficult to measure. The advent of seismic monitoring techniques has provided an alternative to in‐stream monitoring, which is often costly and cannot be ...
    • Hillslope Sediment Supply Limits Alluvial Valley Width 

      Tofelde, StefanieORCIDiD; Bufe, AaronORCIDiD; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD (AGU Advances, 2022-10-31)
      River‐valley morphology preserves information on tectonic and climatic conditions that shape landscapes. Observations suggest that river discharge and valley‐wall lithology are the main controls on valley width. Yet, current ...
    • Influence of Rarely Mobile Boulders on Channel Width and Slope: Theory and Field Application 

      Nativ, RonORCIDiD; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD; Goren, LiranORCIDiD; Laronne, Jonathan B.ORCIDiD; Shyu, J. Bruce H.ORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2022-09-16)
      Large, rarely mobile boulders are observed globally in mountainous bedrock channels. Recent studies suggest that high concentrations of boulders could be associated with channel morphological adjustment. However, a ...
    • Sensitivity and Calibration of Three‐Dimensional SPH Formulations in Large‐Scale Landslide Modeling 

      Li, ShuaiORCIDiD; Tang, HuiORCIDiD; Peng, Chong; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD; Schoepa, Anne; An, Huicong; Chen, XiaoqingORCIDiD; Ouyang, ChaojunORCIDiD; Chen, JiangangORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2023-01-28)
      Numerical prediction of landslide runout and deposition is important for estimating landslide risk and developing mitigation plans. The choice of a suitable model and its parameters and a confident calibration strategy are ...
    • Site Dependence of Fluvial Incision Rate Scaling With Timescale 

      Nativ, RonORCIDiD; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2020-10-26)
      Global measurements of incision rate typically show a negative scaling with the timescale over which they were averaged, a phenomenon referred to as the “Sadler effect.” This time dependency is thought to result from hiatus ...
    • Upscaling Sediment‐Flux‐Dependent Fluvial Bedrock Incision to Long Timescales 

      Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2021-05-12)
      Fluvial bedrock incision is driven by the impact of moving bedload particles. Mechanistic, sediment‐flux‐dependent incision models have been proposed, but the stream power incision model (SPIM) is frequently used to model ...
    • Width control on event-scale deposition and evacuation of sediment in bedrock-confined channels 

      Cook, Kristen L.ORCIDiD; Turowski, Jens M.ORCIDiD; Hovius, NielsORCIDiD (Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2020)
      Abstract In mixed bedrock–alluvial rivers, the response of the system to a flood event can be affected by a number of factors, including coarse sediment availability in the channel, sediment supply from the hillslopes and ...
