Geomorphic Controls on Andean Denudation Rates
To predict erosion rates throughout the Andes, we conducted a multiple regression analysis of the sediment discharge from 47 drainage basins in the Bolivian Andes and various topographic, climatologic, and geologic parameters. These mountainous basins are typically large (17–81,000 km; km), often have decades of measurement mean p 11,000 data on daily water and sediment discharge, and display a...
متن کاملRapid, long-term rates of denudation
High rates of erosion (1-15 mm/yr) of fluvial strata have persisted over intervals of 0.2-1.5 m.y. and across areas of 60-2000 km 2 in the Cenozoic foreland basin of northern Pakistan. These rates occur in areas associated with thrust shortening, and they indicate that erosion nearly kept pace with the rates of latest Miocene to Pleistocene uplift. Such high rates of erosion are predicted to pr...
متن کاملThe contribution of mountains to global denudation
The hypothesis that mountains infl uence global climate through links among rock uplift, physical and chemical denudation, and the carbon cycle remains vigorously debated. We address the contribution of mountains to global denudation with an empirical model that predicts that >50% of the total denudation and 40% of the chemical denudation occur on the steepest ~10% of Earth’s terrestrial surfac...
متن کاملEffect of dispase denudation on amniotic membrane
PURPOSE To describe the cellular components, biochemical composition, and membrane surface characteristics of denuded human amniotic membrane (DHAM) treated with Dispase II. METHODS DHAM was incubated with Dispase II (1.2 U/ml) for 30 min, 60 min, or 120 min. This was followed by gentle scraping to remove any remaining epithelial cells using a cell scraper. Histology, immunohistochemistry for...
متن کاملEndothelial dysfunction and denudation in rat aortic allografts.
Clinical evidence suggests that early endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction may predict the development of graft vascular disease. We wished to assess the early functional and morphological changes in the graft endothelium in a commonly used animal model of graft vascular disease, the rat aortic interposition allograft model. To assess graft EC function, regulation of vascular tone by ECs was monit...
