Escarpment retreat rates derived from detrital cosmogenic nuclide concentrations

<p>High-relief great escarpments at passive margins present a paradoxical combination of high-relief topography but low erosion rates suggesting low rates of landscape change. However, vertical erosion rates do not offer a straightforward metric of horizontal escarpment retreat rates, so we at...
