Key Concepts in Geomorphology was developed with direct input from the community of geomorphology educators.
" - Angela Gurnell, Queen Mary University of London "Time will tell, but this book may well mark a turning point in the way students and scientists alike perceive Earth surface processes and landforms.
This book examines how river systems respond to environmental change and why this understanding is needed for successful river management.
This third edition has been fully updated to include a clearer initial explanation of the nature of geomorphology, of land surface process and form, and of land-surface change over different timescales.
A cutting edge title from two world renowned academics.
Overall, this book focuses on the current understanding of the dynamic interplay between surface processes and active tectonics.
This book has been constructed as an introductory text on river landscapes, providing a bridge and/or companion to quantitatively-framed or modelled approaches to landscape analysis that are addressed elsewhere.

Examining natural and anthropogenic processes, The SAGE Handbook of Geomorphology is a comprehensive exposition of the fundamentals of geomorphology that examines form, process, and applications of the discipline.
The prime purpose of this book is to provide undergraduate students with an introductory understanding of process mechanics and how process leads to the genesis of landforms. In addition to...
