The imprint of erosion by glacial lake outburst floods in the topography of central Himalayan rivers
<p>In steep landscapes, river incision sets the pace of landscape evolution. Transport of coarse sediment controls incision by evacuating material delivered to river channels by landslides. However, large landslide-derived boulders that impede bedrock erosion are immobile even in major runoff-...
