Abstract: The origin of subparallel, regularly-spaced longitudinal ridges often observed at the surface of volcanic and other rock avalanche deposits remains unclear. We addressed this issue through analogue laboratory experiments on flows of bi-disperse granular mixtures,… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The Miocene Aertashi Debris-Avalanche Deposits at the southwestern Tarim Basin, the foreland basin of the Eastern Pamir (NW Tibetan Plateau), have an incredibly long-runout distance (much longer than 130 km) and provide critical constraints on… read more here.
