How will global environmental change affect the landscape and our
interaction with it? Apart from climate change, there are other
important catalysts of landscape change, including relief,
hydroclimate and runoff, sea level variations and human activity.
This volume summarizes the state-of-the-art concerning the
geomorphic implications of global environmental change, analyzing
such effects on lakes, rivers, coasts, reefs, rainforests,
savannas, deserts, glacial features, and mountains. Providing a
benchmark statement from the world s leading geomorphologists on
the current state of, and potential changes to, the environment,
this book is invaluable for advanced courses on geomorphology and
environmental science, and as a reference for research scientists.
Interdisciplinary in scope, with a primary audience of Earth and
environmental scientists, geographers, geomorphologists and
ecologists, it also has a wider reach to those concerned with the
social, economic and political issues raised by global
environmental change, and is useful to policy makers and
environmental managers.
