A coupled channel network growth and hillslope evolution model: 1. Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model of the long-term evolution of catchments, the growth of their drainage networks, and the changes in elevations within both the channels and the hillslopes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scaling, Universality, and Geomorphology

TL;DR: This review describes recent progress made in applying the concepts of scaling and universality to networks and topography and attempts a classification of surface and network properties based on generic mechanisms and geometric constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Physical Basis for Drainage Density

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the transition point between scaling where unstable channel-forming processes yield to stable diffusive processes, and the difference between processes is embedded in the constitutive relation.

New Results for Self-Similar Trees with Applications to River Networks

TL;DR: The self-similar trees (SSTs) as mentioned in this paper are a subclass of tree graphs based on the Strahler ordering scheme, which is defined in terms of a generator matrix which acts as a "blueprint" for constructing different trees.

Coupled numerical–analytical approach to landscape evolution modeling

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new approach for landscape evolution modeling that couples irregular grid-based numerical solutions for the large-scale fluvial dynamics and continuum-based analytical solutions for small-scale divide and capture dynamics.
