Synopsis

The aim of this book is to provide geomorphologists and others in the Earth and environmental sciences with a manual of useful techniques regularly employed by geomorphologists but which are not covered adequately in other handbooks. In particular it concentrates on methods of obtaining data from materials found in the field. The contributors have also attempted to present some critical evaluation of the relative merits of the large number of techniques that are often available to deal with a particular problem. The book should be used in conjunction with its companion volume "Geomorphological Field Manual" by Gardiner and Dackombe.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The specialist contributors to Geomorphological Techniques have thoroughly augmented and updated their original, authoritative coverage with critical evaluations of major recent developments in this field. A new chapter on neotectonics reflects the impact of developments in tectonic theory, and heavily revised sections deal with advances in remote sensing, image analysis, radiometric dating, geomorphometry, data loggers, radioactive tracers, and the determination of pore water pressure and the rates of denudation.
