متن کاملLarge alluvial fans on Mars
[1] Several dozen distinct alluvial fans, 10 to 40 km long downslope, have been observed in highlands craters. Within a search region between 0 and 30 S, alluvial fan-containing craters were found only between 18 and 29 S, and they all occur at around ±1 km of the MOLA-defined Martian datum. Within the study area they are not randomly distributed but instead form three distinct clusters. Fans t...
متن کاملAlluvial Fans Formed by Channelized Fluvial
Alluvial fans and fan-deltas are of three basic types: those built up primarily by the action of constantly avulsing river and stream channels, those constructed by sheet flows, and those resulting from. ~e successive deposition of debris flows. The present analysis is directed toward the first two types. A mechamstic formulation of flow and sediment transport through river channels is combined...
متن کاملFormation of waterfalls by intermittent burial of active faults
Waterfalls commonly exist near bounding faults of mountain ranges, where erosional bedrock catchments transition to depositional alluvial fans. We hypothesize that aggradation on alluvial fans can bury active faults, and that the faults accumulate slip in the subsurface to produce a bedrock scarp. Following entrenchment of the alluvial fan, the scarp can be exposed as a waterfall. To explore th...
متن کاملLaboratory alluvial fans in one dimension.
When they reach a flat plain, rivers often deposit their sediment load into a cone-shaped structure called alluvial fan. We present a simplified experimental setup that reproduces, in one dimension, basic features of alluvial fans. A mixture of water and glycerol transports and deposits glass beads between two transparent panels separated by a narrow gap. As the beads, which mimic natural sedim...
