An automated knickzone selection algorithm (KZ‐Picker) to analyze transient landscapes: Calibration and validation

Streams commonly respond to base‐level fall by localizing erosion within steepened, convex knickzone reaches. Localized incision causes knickzone reaches to migrate upstream. Such migrating knickzones dictate the pace of landscape response to changes in tectonics or erosional efficiency and can help...
