Denudation history of the Great Escarpment in the southwestern flank of the Angola (Bié) Dome, Africa
The origin of the topography and relief of southern Africa has been the subject of intense debate. The landscape is characterized by a high,...

Nonlinear forcing of climate on mountain denudation during glaciations
Denudation is one of the main processes that shapes landscapes. Because temperature, precipitation and glacial extents are key factors involved in...

Cenozoic Transformations of the Mountain Range: Evidence from Denudation Chronology and Landforms
This chapter focuses on the Neogene evolution of the Pyrenean mountain range. Based on methods of denudation chronology and landform analysis, the... -
Abrasion-Denudation Cycle Levels as the Basis of Paleoreconstructions on Rising Coasts
The paper proposes to consider the problem of marine cyclical levels on rising rocky shores from the standpoint of coastal morpholithodynamics and... -
Exhumation History and Exploration Potential of Gold Deposits in the NE Jiaodong Peninsula, North China: Evidence from Apatite and Zircon Fission Track Thermochronology
As the most important gold producer in China, the Northwest Jiaodong Peninsula is famous for its large gold deposits. In recent years, the discovery...

Thermochronology of the Angara–Vitim Granitoid Batholith as an Evolution Record of the Mongol–Okhotsk Orogen
AbstractThe thermal history of the Late Paleozoic granitoids of the Angara–Vitim batholith (AVB) was reconstructed using a comprehensive approach...

Deciphering non-steady landscape evolution by in-situ cosmogenic nuclide depth profile
In-situ cosmogenic nuclides are receiving growing attention in surface Earth system science in which the steady-state denudation is an important...

An Interpretation of Karstification and Karst Processes by Hungarian Researchers
This chapter describes theories by which karst phenomena and processes of Hungarian karstHungarian karst areas were interpreted by Hungarian... -
Fracture identification and characterization of Ordovician carbonate rock reservoir in block B of the Tahe oilfield
The distribution of fractures in fractured-vuggy reservoirs of Ordovician carbonate rock in the Tahe oilfield is one of the main controlling factors...
