EPS109 Final project - Jonathan Kao LandScape Evolution of Taiwan with erosion model • Image: Valley in Taroko National Park
Description • Landscape evolution of Taiwan based on alluvial processes • Based on erosion lab • Topographic data from UCSD site • Long Range: 120-122E • Lat Range: 22-25N • Uplift: 5mm/yr (Wikipedia)
GIF Movie • Timescale: 100 to 100,000 years • Trend: uplift due to tectonics, decreasing relief
