Modelling of sediment supply from torrent catchments in the Western Alps using the sediment contributing area (SCA) approach
(Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2021-02-08)The production of coarse sediment in mountain landscapes depends mainly on the type and activity of geomorphic processes and topographic and natural conditions (e.g. vegetation cover) of these catchments. The supply of ... -
New fjords, new coasts, new landscapes: The geomorphology of paraglacial coasts formed after recent glacier retreat in Brepollen (Hornsund, southern Svalbard)
(Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2020)Changes in the properties and dynamics of tidewater glacier systems are key indicators of the state of Arctic climate and environment. Calving of tidewater glacier fronts is currently the dominant form of ice mass loss and ... -
Paleo‐denudation rates suggest variations in runoff drove aggradation during last glacial cycle, Crete, Greece
(Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2022-11-13)Fluvial aggradation and incision are often linked to Quaternary climate cycles, but it usually remains unclear whether variations in runoff or sediment supply or both drive channel response to climate variability. Here we ... -
The Impact of Sediment Supply on the Initiation and Magnitude of Runoff-Generated Debris Flows
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2020)Rainfall intensity-duration (ID) thresholds are commonly used to assess the potential for runoff-generated debris flows, but the sensitivity of these thresholds to sediment supply, which can change rapidly with time, is ...
