TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out a geomorphic study by examining drainage patterns and characteristics of mountain fronts in order to reveal areal variations and styles of rock uplift, showing that the western part of the Sierra Nevada is tectonically active by means of a combination of normal faults along the mountain front and NNE-SSW oriented active folds, which, in turn, likely have a gravitational origin related to the exhumation of the footwall of the normal fault-system.

TL;DR: The CalHypso extension can also calculate the main statistics related to the hypsometric curve by applying polynomial fits and provides an optimal integration within the program environment, allowing the representation and comparison of curves directly within the GIS main program.

TL;DR: In this article, the application of several geomorphic indices (hypsometric curve analysis, normalized stream-length gradient, and valley width-to-valley height ratio) to the drainage network of the southern limb of the Sierra de Las Estancias antiform (Internal Zones, eastern Betic Cordillera), where low-rate active folding has been recognized, allows us to investigate the suitability of these indices to identify active structures in such a scenario.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the relationship between the graded river gradient (K), the SL index and the stream power, proposing the use of a re-named SLk index, which enables the comparison of variable-length rivers, as well as the drawing of SLk anomaly maps.

TL;DR: In this paper, a fault segmentation and fluvial terrace mapping is presented in the area of the Sierra Alhamilla ridge (anticlinorium) in southeast Spain is related to the dextral reverse Polopos Fault Zone to the north and east of the ridge and to normal faulting in the southern side of the Ridge.
