Seminar - Landform evolution in sedimentary tablelands: patterns of escarpment retreat and the role of subsurface processes

Speaker: Prof. Piotr Migoń - Uniwersytet Wrocławski, Poland | Tuesday 25 March 2025 | 4,30 PM - Arduino Classroom

25.03.2025

In the talk, several conceptual models of escarpment retreat will be presented, with an emphasis on non-catastrophic processes involved in caprock in situ disintegration. This will be followed by the examination of the role of subsurface processes in the evolution of tablelands in clastic and presentation of tools available to recognize that the role is indeed very important.
