Landforms constitute boundary surfaces between different components
of the earth system (atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere,
pedosphere, lithosphere). At these locations most of the human
activity on earth takes place. This central position evokes a
bi-directional interaction with the other spheres of the earth
system. S- tial landform structures strongly affect processes of
other earth system components. At the same time, the land-surface
is shaped by the in uence of these processes impacting
geomorphologic processes and landform morphometry. These
interactions are the focus in the Research Training Group 437
"Landform - a structured and variable boundary layer" at the
University of Bonn in Germany. Funded by the German Research
Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG) the Research
Training Group is a multidisciplinary research programme for
postgraduate studies. Disciplines involved in this programme
include: biology, c- matology, computer sciences, geodynamics,
geology, geomorphology, geophysics, hydrology, mathematics,
meteorology, pedology, and remote sensing. These diff- ent
disciplines offer various scienti c approaches, theories, methods
and data for the study of landforms within their speci c paradigms.
Over a period of ten years (1998-2008) more than 25 PhD projects
have been completed. Dedicated to ongoing and completed research
activities of the Research Training Group an international
symposium titled "Landform - structure, evolution, process control"
was held at the Department of Geography, University of Bonn, in
2007.
