“…We focus on parameters that have been shown to correlate with tectonic activity, including mean and average slope, hypsometric integral, basin relief ratio, and the basin elongation ratio (Table ), assuming a uniform bedrock lithology, climate, and base‐level history (Lifton & Chase, ; Mahmood & Gloaguen, ; Schumm, ; Strahler, ; Wobus et al, ). Some parameters, such as the hypsometric integral (Strahler, ), have been shown to be scale or catchment‐size dependent (Willgoose & Hancock, ; Hurtrez, Lucazeau, Lavé, & Avouac, ; Mahmood & Gloaguen, ; Rabii et al, ) and sensitive to the catchment bedrock lithology (Hurtrez & Lucazeau, ). Regardless, the hypsometric integral has been shown to correlate with tectonic activity for larger catchments (>1,000 km 2 ), but there is a stronger lithologic influence on smaller scales (<100 km 2 ) (Lifton & Chase, ), similar to the scales of catchments along Crowleys Ridge.…”
