Terrestrial river gorge development within bedrock that exhibits a high unconfined compressive strength (for example, basalt and granite) has implications for understanding similar features on Mars ...

Local surface uplift can block rivers, particularly in mountainous regions. The impounded water, however, always finds its way downstream, often cutting a narrow gorge into the rocks. Subsequent ...

Unstable slopes on Oregon's coastline could see a 30 percent jump in landslide movements if extreme storms become frequent enough to increase seacliff erosion by 10 percent, a new study shows.
