Earth surface processes shape mountain landscapes through interactions with tectonics, climate, and lithology. Mountain landscapes respond to changes in tectonics and climate, as well as the exhumation of rocks with different hardness, and to variations in sediment supply and caliper, all of which influence topography over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. Understanding and quantifying these processes is essential for unlocking insights into the geodynamic, climatic, and surface mechanisms that drive topographic change in mountain environments. This interdisciplinary effort involves studies of processes such as erosion, sediment flux and transport, uplift, crustal deformation, climate and mantle dynamics. This session encourages contributions that enhance our understanding of the surface and geodynamic processes operating across tectonically active landscapes on timescales ranging from seconds to millions of years. We welcome submissions in Tectonic Geomorphology, including fluvial dynamics, geomorphic expressions of crustal deformation, erosion, sediment transport, and their interactions over time.
