Planetary Surface Processes is the first advanced textbook to cover
the full range of geologic processes that shape the surfaces of
planetary-scale bodies. Using a modern, quantitative approach, this
book reconsiders geologic processes outside the traditional
terrestrial context. It highlights processes that are contingent
upon Earth's unique circumstances and processes that are universal.
For example, it shows explicitly that equations predicting the
velocity of a river are dependent on gravity: traditional
geomorphology textbooks fail to take this into account. This
textbook is a one-stop source of information on planetary surface
processes, providing readers with the necessary background to
interpret new data from NASA, ESA and other space missions. Based
on a course taught by the author at the University of Arizona for
25 years, it is aimed at advanced students, and is also an
invaluable resource for researchers, professional planetary
scientists and space-mission engineers.
