Abstract:In mountain rivers, sediment from landslides or debris flows can
alluviate portions or even full reaches of bedrock channel beds,
influencing bedrock river incision rates. Various landscape evolution
models have been developed to account for the coevolution of alluvial
cover and sediment-flux-dependent bedrock incision. Despite the
commonality of their aims, one major difference between these models is
the way they account for and conserve sediment. We combine two of the
most widely used sediment conservation … Show more
