Synopsis

Urban geomorphology is defined as geographically confined to areas of concentrated urbanization, where the natural environment is anthropogenically modified and where natural processes modify anthropogenic structures. This book presents anthropogenic impact on geomorphic processes. Urbanization in the hill slopes if not planned properly, results in slope failures and ultimately causes damage to life and property. Hill towns of the fragile Himalayas are facing a newly emerged problem of mismanaged and unplanned building construction. This problem has become more dangerous because of material transformation of the hill slopes and related environmental hazards.
