Find out about applications for cosmogenic nuclide concentrations. For example, cosmogenic nuclide concentrations are commonly used to determine ‘exposure ages’ and ‘erosion rates’. Some common examples include: Rates of landscape change Rock surface erosion rates Land surface degradation rates Basin‐wide erosion rates River incision rates Modern erosion (meteoric 10Be) Fault‐slip rates Exposure dating Glacier erosion/deposition surfaces: striated bedrock, erratics, moraines Fluvial and glaciofluvial terraces Buried sediments: caves, glacial till Rockfalls Fault scarps Lava flows Flood deposits Alluvial fans This article was published on 2024-07-01
