Description
The role of insolation as an instigator for crack initiation in rock is still a continuously perplexing topic. An immense amount of data has been collected on the influence of insolation on cracking – however, ongoing questions arise regarding the...

Description
This study characterizes four toposequences in two first-order watersheds (4.5 and 6.2 ha) of the SE Piedmont where the entire Holocene source-to-sink system is presumably still intact. Despite a long history of soil and geomorphic research in the...

Description
Soil development combined with sediment storage and erosion in small, upland watersheds are key landscape processes for which assumptions are frequently made but rarely verified in landscape evolution studies. However, processes such as these, act...

Description
Few studies provide data that can document the long-term landscape evolution of the Piedmont of the southeastern United States. Here we present the results of field mapping and a soil chronosequence for fluvial terraces along a ~46 km reach of the...

Description
Large-scale exfoliation cracks and associated domes can strongly influence regional landscape evolution, hydrology and hazards, but their formation mechanism(s) and long-term evolution are poorly understood. Beginning in August 2014, in Twain Hart...
