Geomorphology is the study of the earth's landforms and the
processes that made the landscape look the way it does today. What
we see when we look at a scenic view is the result of the interplay
of the forces that shape the earth's surface. These operate on many
different timescales and involve geological as well as climatic
forces. Adrian Harvey introduces the varying geomorphological
forces and differing timescales which thus combine: from the
global, which shape continents and mountain ranges; through the
regional, producing hills and river basins; to the local, forming
beaches, glaciers and slopes; to those micro scale forces which
weather rock faces and produce sediment. Finally, he considers the
effect that humans have had on the world's topography.
