Material type: Text

TextPublication details: London Routledge 1991 , Reprint 2022ISBN:

9781032292113

DDC classification:

23 551.41 SUM.G

Contents:

Approaches to geomorphology Global morphology and tectonics Landforms and tectonics of plate margins Landforms and tectonics of plate interiors Landforms associated with igneous activity Weathering and associated landforms Slope processes and forms Fluvial processes Fluvial landforms Aeolian processes and landforms Glacial processes and landforms Periglacial processes and landforms Coastal processes and landforms Climate, climatic change and landform development Rates of uplift and denudation Tectonics and drainage development Sea-level change Long-term landscape development Planetary geomorphology

Summary: Global geomorphology is the subject of this book, working from the perspective that an adequate appreciation of landform genesis must encompass a knowledge of the large-scale framework of landscapes as well as an understanding of the smaller-scale processes which create individual landforms.
