- W3014401929 abstract "Tropical mountain rivers produce a disproportionately high amount of the sediment and carbon that reaches coastal regions and are often portrayed as distinct, though understudied, fluvial systems. They mostly drain uplands with limited contemporary glacier cover, but have undergone climatic changes throughout the Pleistocene, and currently receive more than 2000 mm of annual precipitation. These streams have steep reaches with numerous boulders, rapids, and waterfalls that alternate with flatter reaches flowing over weathered rock or a thin veneer of coarse alluvium. Yet it remains unclear whether and which key diagnostics could help to distinguish tropical mountain rivers from their counterparts in temperate regions. One emerging view is that their distinctiveness is grounded in high rates of chemical and physical weathering and a high frequency of significant geomorphic events rather than the size of individual floods or other geomorphic processes. Disturbances such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tropical cyclones, and landslides can rapidly reshape channels and floodplains. Their bedrock reaches with abundant large and immobile boulders seem to indicate that restorative processes are less effective than in other rivers." @default.
