Introduction to Process Geomorphology

By K. Sharma Vijay and Vijay K. Sharma

An introduction to the dynamics of internal geologic processes of earth, this book explains the origin of landforms by the processes involved in their evolution. The author expresses process activities in mathematical, empirical, and semi-empirical perspectives to highlight their distinctive identity in specific environmental stress conditions. Each chapter reviews, synthesizes, and provides recent findings and understanding of the complexity of geomorphic processes. They also include competing hypotheses on the evolution of landforms of the given environment. Examples and detailed case studies enable readers to understand the components of process-form relationships.
