Peneplains develop primarily tbrough downwearing, i.e. slope lowering. In the
course of peneplanation divides are lowered, slopes become gentler with time,
and the landscape is progressively graded towards BASk l.EVEl . By contrast, in
the ...
They are Davis's peneplanation ( 1 899), Penck's parallel retreat (1953), Hack's
dynamic equilibrium (1960), Ruhe's ideas of backwearing (Ruhe et al., 1967) and
Dalrymple and associates' (1968) nine- unit landsurface. Some field evidence ...

Geological Survey Professional Paper
This period of erosion was followed by mid-Tertiary or later peneplanation that
must have reduced much of the range to a region of low relief. Renewed uplift of
the range occurred during one or more episodes after peneplanation; broad ...

No shore line follows the eastern border, because the depression after the newer
peneplanation was not sufficient to submerge that part of the bordering lowland.
Second, the valleys by which the uplands are submaturely or maturely ...

epoch of global peneplanation (Late Mesozoic and Paleogene), 150-25 millions
of years. 2. The epoch of interrupted, partial peneplanation (End of Paleogene

Accordant, gently rolling summits and broad, meandering valleys of the “Driftless

This area is underlain by deformed Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks and is very
suggestive of peneplanation. One who sees peneplanation in every flat- topped
area in the mountains will probably be able to make out a second and lower
stage ...

The present writers believe the Klamath cycle of peneplanation ended with
moderate regional uplift before the upper Miocene beds were deposited, and that
with this uplift a new stage of erosion began. The Klamath peneplane was
dissected ...
