The interaction between hangingwall block rotation and alluvial deposition is examined from Late Triassic–Early Jurassic successions exposed along the Catán Lil half-graben border fault system in the Neuquén Basin, Argentina. ...

Mountainous regions and their forelands commonly support a suite of landforms sensitive to climate change and tectonics. Alluvial fans in particular, are prominent geomorphological features in arid and semiarid regions ...

Using a statistical approach, Scheihing attempts to demonstrate the direct influence of recharge events in the Precordillera and the Andean Piedmont on water table variations in downstream alluvial fans. The author ...

This article presents an analysis of facies of sedimentary sequences that occur as discontinuous bodies in the Jundiai region, west of the main Tertiary continental basins of the southeastern Brazil continental rift. Nine ...

Freshwater sponge spicules were analyzed as a paleoenvironmental proxy indicator in five cores of ponds and alluvial fan sediments in the Upper Paraná River's left bank, near Querência do Norte town, northwestern of State ...

Alluvial fans are sensitive recorders of both climatic change and tectonic activity. The ability to constrain the age of alluvial-fan sequences, individual sedimentary events and the rates of sediment accumulation are key ...

Tributary-junction alluvial fans situated at the intersection of confined valleys with <100 km(2) tributary catchments are of special interest to evaluate the heterogeneous consequences of extreme rainfall events in arid ...
