- •
Quantification of the flexural response to valley incision in the Gamburtsevs.
- •
Flexure contributed 17–25% of peak uplift in the Gamburtsevs.
- •
Valley incision in the Gamburtsevs mostly occurred in a temperate climate.
- •
The Gamburtsevs were a key inception point for ice sheet development at 34 Ma.
- •
Tectonic and/or dynamic processes are responsible for ca. 80% of Gamburtsev elevation.
