The Daba Shan Orocline is located in the northeastern Sichuan Basin, and has undergone foreland propagation and distinct surface uplift owing to the eastward expansion of the Tibetan Plateau since the late Cenozoic. In order to describe and quantify the earth surface processes respond to deep geological mechanisms, and to detect the kind of tectonic deformation in the Daba Shan area during the late Cenozoic, various geomorphic indices were analyzed for study area. The obtained results are: (1) The northeast of the Hanzhong Basin, the Hannan-Micang Massifs, along the Chengkou-Fangxian fault, and the Shennongjia Massif exhibit intense tectonic activity. (2) The spatial patterns of the channel steepness indices indicate that the western segment of the northern Daba Shan (Fenghuang Shan and Paotaizi region) have higher uplift rates than the eastern. (3) The longitudinal profile analysis revealed that the landscape evolution of the Shennongjia Massif is in a transient state, with an uplift amplitude of 1700-1900 m since the end of the Paleogene (25 Ma), and an average uplift rate of 0.072 +/- 0.004 mm/a. The paleochannel reconstruction indicate an incision of similar to 900-1000 m since the late Neogene (3.0-3.4 Ma), with the average uplift rate being 03 +/- 0.03 mm/a. (4) Three tectonic deformation zones can be distinguished in the Daba Shan (from west to east), the shortening deformation, strike-slip deformation, and vertical uplift zones. These observations suggest that the eastward growth of the Tibetan Plateau has affected the Daba Shan area and shaped the modern landscape. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A glacier in transition: Surface elevation change, ELA and geomorphic evolution of a very small glacier in the Dolomites (S-E Alps)
A. Securo, C. Del Gobbo, L. Rettig, S. Pillon, A. De Luca, D. Fontana, E. Benedetti Fasil, R. R. Colucci
Summary: Small glaciers in temperate mountain regions have experienced significant reduction and unprecedented melt rates in recent years. Some glaciers have transitioned from clean ice to debris-covered or even rock glaciers. This study examines the surface elevation change of the Popera Alto glacier in the Sesto Dolomites using LiDAR and Structure from Motion surveys, and analyzes its evolution in terms of surface cover and geomorphic processes. The glacier has lost an average of 0.35 m water equivalent per year over the past 16 years, with active modification of its surface cover by geomorphic processes. The role of debris and local topography feedback has allowed the resilience of the glacier, leading to a marked difference between the current environmental equilibrium line altitude (envELA) and the effective ELA (effELA) of the glacier.

Standing on the shoulder of a giant landslide: A six-year long InSAR look at a slow-moving hillslope in the western Karakoram
Said Mukhtar Ahmad, Nitheshnirmal Sadhasivam, Mona Lisa, Luigi Lombardo, Mustafa Kemal Emil, Amira Zaki, Cees J. Van Westen, Islam Fadel, Hakan Tanyas
Summary: In this study, we investigated a large slow-moving landslide in Northern Pakistan, using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) analysis. Our results showed that the crown of the landslide is moving faster than the surrounding regions, while the footslope experienced high deformations. We discussed the possible roles of meteorologic and anthropogenic factors in causing these deformations.

Orographic rainfall drives the Himalaya drainage divide to move north
Shuang Bian, Xibin Tan, Yiduo Liu, Suoya Fan, Junfeng Gong, Chao Zhou, Feng Shi, Michael A. Murphy
Summary: The Yarlung River's drainage divide is primarily moving north due to variations in precipitation across the Himalayas. The Gangdese drainage divide shows predominantly northward and southward migration, controlled by base-level rise and downstream influences. The presence of north-trending rifts separates the drainage divides into five zones, each with a distinct migration pattern.

The lasting legacy of glacial landscape dynamics: Capturing the transport of boulder armor and hillslope retreat with geochronology in the Flint Hills of Kansas
Nicholas Reilly Mccarroll, Arnaud Temme
Summary: New geochronological data from hillslope boulder armor in the Flint Hills reveal the rates and timing of lateral retreat in the landscape. Surfaces of limestone boulders dating back to the Pleistocene era were found, and the ages of the hillslope armor increased with distance from the limestone bench. The estimated rate of lateral retreat in this landscape is 0.02 mm/yr.

Subsurface structures and nature of seafloor mounds in the northern South China Sea margin: Implications for Mesozoic hydrocarbon exploration
Junhui Yu, Pin Yan, Yanlin Wang, Guangjian Zhong, Changliang Chen
Summary: The seafloor mounds in the Chaoshan Depression of the South China Sea are identified as mud volcanoes, with fluids coming from underlying mud-fluid diapirs. The hydrocarbon gases feeding the mud volcanoes and diapirs are reasoned to originate from deep Mesozoic source rocks, indicating significant Mesozoic hydrocarbon potential in the Chaoshan Depression.

Mid-Holocene climate-glacier relationship inferred from landforms and relict lake sequence, Southern Zanskar ranges, NW Himalaya
Shubhra Sharma, Anil D. Shukla
Summary: The study investigates the relationship between glacial dynamics and lake sedimentation during the mid-Holocene climate variability in the Southern Zanskar ranges. It utilizes geomorphological disposition, elemental geochemistry, and optical chronology of relict lake sediment to reconstruct the pattern of minor glacier responses to climate variability. The results indicate six centennial to millennial-scale climatic phases, with warmer phases represented by decreased mineralogical fine grain flux and increased coarse grain flux. The study highlights the potential of relict lake sediment and para/peri-glacial landforms in understanding glacial dynamics and climate change during the Holocene.

Jean-Francois Bernier, Sydney W. Meury, Patrick Lajeunesse
Summary: In this study, an approach combining various data and observation methods was proposed to improve the monitoring of landfast ice dynamics and its geomorphic impact on sedimentary systems. The results demonstrate the ability of the approach to accurately measure interannual variations in landfast ice and constrain geomorphic changes. Additionally, the study found a strong relationship between the severity of freezing seasons and the response of landfast ice to hydrometeorological events, with different geomorphic responses observed under different winter conditions.

Seasonal morphological evolution and migration of granule ripples in the Sanlongsha Dune Field, northern Kumtagh Sand Sea, China
Guangqiang Qian, Zhuanling Yang, Xuegang Xing, Zhibao Dong, Youyuan Guo
Summary: Granule ripples are aeolian landforms armored against erosion by coarse grains. This study investigates their seasonal morphological evolution and migration in the Sanlongsha Dune Field. The findings show that wind events, especially those exceeding the threshold velocities of coarse grains, significantly influence the morphodynamics of granule ripples. The study highlights the importance of considering the reptation and saltation of coarse grains in future research on granule ripples.
