Dynamic topography of Earth’s surface occurs in response to hydrodynamic stresses due to mantle flow beneath a flexible lithosphere. Here, we compare the predicted dynamic topography from an inverse-convection model that includes flat slab subducti

Changes in stacking density of fluvial channel-belt sand bodies are one of the most obvious aspects of alluvial architecture. The proximity of sand bodies to each other has been used as a field criterion to suggest major changes in external factors,

Constraining the depositional gradient of ancient alluvial river systems can aid in reconstructing landscapes and estimating paleodischarge by establishing boundaries on the climatic and tectonic history of continental sequences. We present three met

When and how the central Rocky Mountains (Rockies) of western North America gained modern topography remain controversial questions. We reconstruct the middle and late Cenozoic topography along a transect that extends from the Great Plains of western

Carbon isotope records from organic matter provide a key data set for constraining past fluctuations in the isotopic composition of atmospheric carbon dioxide (δ13Catm), hydrologic conditions, and plant community composition. Here we evaluate spatio

U–Pb detrital zircon geochronology has been used to identify provenance and document sediment delivery systems during the deposition of the early Late Triassic Yanchang Formation in the south Ordos Basin. Two outcrop samples of the Yanchang Formati

A solitary, thin, widespread conglomerate is found in latest Cretaceous-Paleocene sections in each of these Laramide basins of the Southern Rockies—the Table Cliff (northwestern Kaiparowits) Plateau and Uinta Basin (Utah), the Piceance Creek and De

Internally generated (autogenic) sedimentary processes can obscure signals of tectonic movements, climate conditions, or sea-level fl uctuations in alluvial basins. The stratigraphic effects of autogenic dynamics have been considered negligible on ti
