We explore the coastal morphology along an uplifting 500 km-long coastal segment of the Central Andes, between the cities of Chala (Peru) and Arica (Chile). We use accurate DEM and field surveys to extract sequences of u...

Shortening of the continental lithosphere is generally accommodated by the growth of crustal wedges building above megathrusts in the mantle lithosphere. We show that the locus of shortening in the western margin of Sout...

Elevations of the shoreline angles of marine terraces have long been used to infer Pleistocene sea levels and/or uplift rates. We attempt to use morphologic properties of sequences of marine terraces-terrace width and sl...

Deux petites vallées glaciaires au dessus d'Azet (Saint-Lary, Hautes Pyrénées). La vallée de droite a une forme en "U" avec des parois abruptes. Elle est un peu tronquée, car le fond est occupé par les sédiments de la ri...

What if coastal cliffs recession rates could be measured 60 times further in time than with classical methods? Coastal cliff evolution prediction for the next century would then not be so much of a stretch. In this work,...
