Ft And Ahe Exhumation Rates News Today : Breaking News, Live Updates & Top Stories | Vimarsana

We explore the spatial and temporal variations in denudation rates in the northern Pamir Tian Shan region using 10Be-derived denudation rates from modern (n = 110) and buried sediment (2.0–2.7 Ma; n = 3), and long-term exhumation rates from published apatite fission track (AFT; n = 705) and apatite (U-Th-Sm)/He (AHe; n = 211) thermochronology. We found moderate correlations between denudation rates and topographic metrics and weak correlations between denudation rates and annual rainfall, highlighting complex linkages among tectonics, climate, and surface processes that vary locally. The 10Be data show a spatial trend of decreasing modern denudation rates from west to east, suggesting that deformation and precipitation control denudation in the northern Pamir and western Tian Shan. Farther east, the denudational response of the landscape to Quaternary glaciations is more pronounced and reflected in our data. Modern 10Be denudation rates are generally higher than the long-term AFT and ....
