"Magnitude and timing of transient incision resulting from large-scale " by Brian D. Penserini, Kristin D. Morell et al.
Few studies have constrained the magnitudes and timescales associated with large-scale drainage captures (areas >103 km2), even though these constraints are crucial to reconstruct sediment budgets, assess the potential for drainage reorganization to be preserved in the rock record, and determine the extent to which environmental signals (i.e., structures, composition and fossil assemblages within sedimentary rocks that are influenced by sediment supply and transport) are representative of conditions during deposition. In this work, we characterize the Pleistocene capture of the Zhada Basin,...
