Abstract:
Abstract. Carbon dioxide consumption by silicate mineral weathering and the subsequent precipitation of carbonate sediments sequesters CO2 over geologic timescales. The rate of this carbon sequestration is coupled to rates of continental erosion, which exposes fresh minerals to weathering. Steep mountain landscapes represent a small fraction of continental surfaces but contribute disproportionately to global erosion rates. However, the relative contributions of Earth's much vaster, but more slowly eroding, plains and hills remain the subject of debate. Recently, Willenbring et al. (2013) analy

Abstract:
Este trabalho explora banco de dados traços de fissão em apatitas com o objetivo de desenvolver uma visão sinóptica de padrões de denudação através do espaço-tempo na margem continental brasileira. A resposta geomorfológica aos processos de rifteamento e ruptura continental variou ao longo da margem continental brasileira. No processo de construção do relevo desta margem foram registrados três episódios de resfriamento acelerado, que são vinculados a processos denudacionais: Cretáceo Inferior, Cretáceo Superior e Paleógeno-Neógeno. As margens continentais sudeste e leste apresentam uma morfolo

Abstract:
Analysis of five basement samples from the Vestfold Hills (East Antarctica) reveals pooled apatite fission track (FT) ages ranging from 188 to 264 Ma and mean lengths of 13.7 to 14.9 μm. Quantitative thermal histories derived from these data give consistent results indicating onset of cooling/denudation began sometime prior to 240 Ma, with final cooling below 105°–125°C occurring between 240 and 220 Ma (Triassic). A Cretaceous denudation phase can be inferred from the sedimentary record of the Prydz Bay offshore the Vestfold Hills. The two denudational episodes are likely associated with Palae

Modelling studies of the tectonic evolution of the Transantarctic Mountains in Antarctica have drawn differing conclusions as to the primary mechanisms involved. None has considered the role of the East Antarctic ice sheet in detail. We use a denudation—flexural model to examine the isostatic response of the continental margin to glacial erosion to determine whether glacial processes have played a role in forcing mountain uplift. The conclusion is that, although there are insufficient data formally to delimit the role of glacial erosion, available geophysical and geomorphological data are not

Abstract:
The Sarmatian-Pannonian and Pontian-Pliocene stages are most important in the landform evolution of the Inner Precarpathians and Solotvyn basin. Due to the intense elevations in the upper Miocene, the Precarpathian Sea was pushed to the east and northeast. On the land freed from the sea, a hydrographic network was created, and rivers moved along the retreating sea in Northeast and Southeast directions. Original river valleys were of diagonal and inline outflow directions unlike modern transverse valleys. The Pontian-Pliocene is associated with the final phase of Carpathian and Precarpathian te
