Quantifying near-surface rock strength on a regional scale from hillslope stability models - dataset

Creator:

Townsend, Kirk F., Gallen, Sean F., and Clark, Marin K.

Description:

These datasets support the findings of Townsend et al. (2020). In this article, we quantify rock strength using two novel applications of hillslope stability models, resulting in estimates of cohesive and frictional strength at the spatial scale of small watersheds. We compare these results against the direct-shear test dataset here for validation of our approach. We find that cohesive strength is dependent on the original burial depth of the sedimentary rocks studied here. The low-temperature thermochronometry data was used to assess the magnitude of burial.
