Characterizing the transient geomorphic response to base‐level fall in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau

Analysis of hillslope gradient, landscape relief, and channel steepness in the Daxia River basin provides evidence of a transient geomorphic response to base‐level fall on the northeastern Tibetan Plateau. Low‐gradient channels and gentle hillslopes of the upper watershed are separated from a steepe...
