Abstract:In contrast to the mountainous topography and high relief of the Hohe Tauern, the adjacent Nock Mountains (Gurktal Alps) are characterized by hilly topography, lower relief and rounded summits. Although the peculiar landforms in the Nock Mountains have long been recognized, little is known about the rates of landscape evolution in this area. Here we present the first set of 16 10Be-based catchment-wide erosion rates from the Nock Mountains. Our results show that the 10 main catchments erode at rates between ~ … Show more
