Optically stimulated luminescence chronology and geomorphic imprint of Xiazangtan landslide upon the upper Yellow River valley on the northeastern Tibetan Plateau

Landslides provide a means to study tectonic and climate forcing on hillslopes in mountainous terrain. Landslides are common in the upper Yellow River valley on the northeastern Tibetan Plateau, some of which even blocked the Yellow River. However, uncertainty remains on the trigger factors for these palaeolandslides, and emplacement timing of palaeolandslides could be essential to resolve these issues. In this study, single aliquot regeneration...
