The interactions between tectonic uplift, river erosion and
alluvial deposition are fundamental processes which have acted to
shape the landscape we see today. These processes are of course
ongoing, and are important not only in geomorphology, sedimentology
and structural geology, but also hydrology and river engineering.
The authors have combined their specialities to bring together
evidence and a variety of examples from both field and experimental
studies to demonstrate how alluvial rivers are responding to
uplift, subsidence and lateral tilting. Such recognition of the
nature of river response yield criteria for the identification of
active tectonics elsewhere, especially in areas without a history
of seismic activity, or in the stratigraphic record. This volume
will be of interest to graduate students, consultants and academic
researchers in geomorphology, sedimentology and stratigraphy,
structural geology, hydrology, geophysics, and geography.
