The relative roles of climate and tectonics in mountain building have been widely debated. Central to this debate is the process of flexural uplift in response to valley incision. Here we quantify this process in the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains,... Read More about Erosion-driven uplift in the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains of East Antarctica.
