Sources and Sinks of Pliocene erosion: Investigating the latest-stage exhumation history of the Alps

This study is part of TOPO-EUROPE, aiming a 4-D projection of orogen and intra-plate development of Europe. The Individual Project (IP) "Sources and Sinks of Pliocene erosion" is part of the TOPO-EUROPE Collaborative Research Project (CRP) "Thermo-Europe", which concentrates on the evolution of the Alps in the latest Neogene applying thermochronological methods. This study investigates th...

Sources and Sinks of Pliocene erosion: Investigating the latest-stage exhumation history of the Alps

This study is part of the Thermo-Europe project investigating coupled climatic/tectonic forcing of European topography based on thermochronometry. The Individual Project IP 2 will contribute data to the Collaborative Research Project ‘Sources and Sinks of Pliocene erosion: Investigating the latest-stage exhumation history of the Alps'. My PhD colleague Simon Elfert is working on the p...
