Ivy-Ochs [and others] -- Applications of morphochronology to the active tectonics of Tibet / F.J. Ryerson [and others] -- Using in situ-produced 10Be to quantify active tectonics in the Gurvan Bogd mountain range (Gobi-Altay, Mongolia) / J.-F. Ritz [and others] -- Eroding the land: steady-state and stochastic rates and processes through a cosmogenic lens / A.M. Heimsath -- Exposure dating (10Be, 26Al) of natural terrain landslides in Hong Kong, China / R.J. Sewell [and others]. In situproduced cosmogenic nuclides can provide chronologies of environmental change over the past few thousand to several millions of years and may be used to quantify a wide range of weathering and sediment transport processes. These nuclides are thus now used across a broad spectrum of earth science disciplines, including paleoclimatology, geomorphology, and active tectonics. This book is organized around sections that focus on specific aspects of the utilization of cosmogenic nuclides in earth sciences: (1) development of new methods for application of in situproduced cosmogenic nuclides (burial dating methods, extending their utilization to carbonate-rich and mafic environments); (2) glacial geology (Laurentide Ice Sheet, northern Alps); (3) active tectonics, focusing on applications to constrain slip rates of active faults in Asia (Tibet and Mongolian Gobi-Altay); and (4) landscape development (quantifying sediment production or erosion rates and processes and application of exposure dating to landslides in Hong Kong).
