long-term fluvial incision rates in the lowermost reaches of the Metauro, Cesano, Misa and Esino Rivers. The obtained averaged incision rates have been interpreted also in the light of the Stream-Length Gradient Index, Steepness Index, and Concavity

fluvial incision during the Quaternary, punctuated by major climatically driven periods of aggradation and dissection, which created a suite of 5 river terraces. The river terrace sequence was radically modified in the late Pleistocene by a major river
capture (itself a response to regional tectonics), localized tectonic activity and eustatic base-level change. The Rio Alias is defined by 4 reaches; within each the climatically-generated, region-wide, fluvial response was modified by tectonics, base

The AA. present new data about the morphological and stratigraphic evolution and the rates of fluvial denudation of the Tavoliere di Puglia plain, a low-relief landscape representing the northernmost sector of the Pliocene-Pleistocene foredeep
of the southern Apennines. The study area is located between the easternmost part of the southern Apennine chain and the Gargano promontory and it is characterized by several orders of terraced fluvial deposits, disconformably overlying lower Pleistocene marine
fluvial terraces in order to perform paleotopographic reconstruction and GIS-aided eroded volumes estimates. Then, they estimated denudation rates on the basis of the terraces chronostratigraphy, supported by published OSL and AAR dating. A steady-state
Les facteurs climatiques et tectoniques ont eu un impact important sur l'évolution du relief fluvial en Afrique du Sud durant le Mésozoïque et le Cénozoïque. Par temps de sécheresse, l'érosion éolienne et différents types de météorisation et des
éboulis ont un rôle plus important, tandis que les processus fluviaux ne sont que subsidiaires. La tectonique a aussi un impact considérable sur la formation du relief du réseau fluvial. En outre, l'influence de la riftogenèse est visible pratiquement dans

Schmidt hammer (SH) R-values are reported for surface clasts from numerically dated Holocene and Pleistocene fluvial terraces in the South Island of New Zealand. The R-values are combined with previously obtained weathering rind, radiocarbon
exposure-age dating (SHD) is a reliable calibrated-age dating technique for fluvial terraces.
