Session ID#: 12886

Session Description:
It’s been three decades since the recognition that mass redistribution by erosion can modulate the growth and evolution of orogenic systems. The interdependent relationships between topographic growth, orographic precipitation, sediment delivery and geomorphic systems have been explored in various mountain systems (e.g. Taiwan, Himalaya, Andes, St. Elias), yet the magnitude of the interactions remains uncertain. In many systems, these processes and their interactions can be hazardous to the people and infrastructure of the region (e.g. earthquakes, landslides, and tropical cyclones). This session will bring together research in climatology, tectonics, and surface processes to assess the current state of understanding and new approaches to exploring the interaction of the climate and tectonic systems. In addition to field studies, we encourage contributions from numerical models and theoretical approaches that provide testable predictions in natural systems.
