The Fluvial Battering Ram: Collisional Experiments Reveal the Importance of Particle Impact Energies on Bedrock Erosional Efficiency
Abstract The battering of bedrock by bedload collisions is the primary mechanism by which bedrock rivers erode and landscapes evolve. The energy imparted via impacts acts to detach bedrock via the growth and intersection of surface fractures. We present impact experiments designed to test the influe...
