Based on 13 independent steepland field investigations this book demonstrates the diverse conceptual structures used at four different temporal levels of research--southern Africa, Yukon Territory, the German Alps and a Columbian volcano. Examines the sediment production problem in Spitzbergen and northern Norway; sediment storage phenomena in Iceland, Bolivia, the Himalayas and the Apennines and methods of interpreting environmental change from Japan, the Canadian Rockies, Ecuador and Bolivia.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Steepland geomorphology concerns high gradient landscapes which are either tectonically active or influenced by volcanism and where there is a perceived close relationship between soils, incomplete vegetation cover, recent geomorphic processes and associated landforms. Such areas are difficult to manage because of their high variability in terms of natural stability and because of inadequate theory and models. This book, through thirteen independent steepland field investigations, illustrates the differing conceptual frameworks that are used at four different temporal scales of investigation. The first four investigations, from Southern Africa, the Yukon Territory, the German Alps and Colombia, define relevant temporal scales. The other investigations concern the sediment production problem in Spitzbergen and northern Norway, sediment storage phenomena in Iceland, Bolivia, the Himalayas and the Apennines, and methods of interpreting environmental change from Japan, the Canadian Rockies, Ecuador and Bolivia. Steepland Geomorphology concerns landscapes which are steep and either tectonially active or influenced by volcanism where there is a perceived close relationship between soils, in-complete vegetation cover, recent geomorphic processes and association landforms. This book illustrates the differing conceptual frameworks that are used at four different temporal scales of investigation. This item is printed on demand.
