Geomorphology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search For other uses, see Physiographic regions of the world Surface of the Earth Geomorphology (from Greek ge , "earth"; morfé , "form"; and λόγος, logos , "study") is the scientific study of landforms and the processes that shape them, and more broadly, the evolution of processes controlling the topography of any planet. Geomorphologists seek to understand why landscapes look the way they do, to understand landform history and dynamics, and to predict future changes through a combination of field observation, physical experiment, and numerical modeling . Geomorphology is practiced within geography geology geodesy engineering geology ... archaeology , and geotechnical engineering , and this broad base of interest contributes to a wide variety of research styles and interests within the field. The form of the Earth's surface evolves in response to a combination of natural and anthropogenic processes, and responds to the balance between processes that add material and those that remove it. Such processes may act across very many lengthscales and timescales. On the broadest scales, the landscape is built up through tectonic uplift and volcanism Denudation occurs by erosion and mass wasting , which produces sediment that is transported and deposited elsewhere within the landscape or off the coast.

This is a draft article , under development and not meant to be cited; you can help to improve it. These unapproved articles are subject to edit intro The word "Geomorphology" is derived from the Greek words γη, ge, "earth"; μορφή, morfé, "form"; and λόγος, logos, "knowledge". A simple definition is "The form of the earth, the general configuration of its surface, and the changes that take place in the evolution of land forms. Put another way, "Geomorphology takes into account the landforms and geological history of an area, the processes that have shaped the landscape, and the time period over which these processes occur. In other words, geomorphology can be used to explain the complex evolution of the landscape as we see it today." Geomorphologists study the processes of weathering and erosion, sediment transport and deposition, the characterisation of landforms and the materials making up their composition.

To: geomorph-l@ttacs6.ttu.edu
From: Paul R. Larson larson@edu-suu-scf.sc.suu.edu
Subject: geomorphology as a field of study
I have a question for everyone. What do you say to the geologists who claim that there is no longer a need for the study of geomorphology, that it is nothing more than physical geology? Our school is in the process of a semester conversion, and the geomorphology course was a casulty of the process. Geology dropped it, but I was successful in adding it to the geography curriculum. There seems to be no small degree of antipathy toward the subject among the geologists here on campus. So, I wondered how others have handled the question. Thanks, Paul R. Larson Paul R.

Geomorphology is the science concerned with understanding the form of the Earth's land surface and the processes by which it is shaped, both at the present day as well as in the past. British geomorphologists are involved in research into the processes of weathering and erosion, sediment transport and deposition, the characterisation of landforms and the materials of which they are composed.

  • Definition : (Geo, G. the Earth; Morph, G. Form, ology G. the science of) Geomorphology is the study of landscapesIt entails the systematic description of landforms and the analysis of the processes that create them. Geomorphologists are also concerned with understanding the function landforms and how landforms respond to changes in energy. Because landforms and landscapes result from the combined effects of lithology, structure, and process, geomorphology draws upon nearly all fields of geology.

Introduction
Understanding the land resource, its condition and inherent capability provides a basis for sustainable land use. Collection of information to support land management and land use planning programs has largely been based on Land Systems approaches. Land Systems are derived by integrating environmental features including geology, landform, climate, soils and native vegetation using an ecological approach (Christian and Stewart 1946). In Victoria, the approach was used by Rowan and Downes (1963) and Gibbons and Downes (1964). Since the first surveys there have been many land system and soil/terrain related surveys that were combined to form a land systems map of the state. The first complete Victoria Land Systems map coverage was produced by Rowan (1990) and an unpublished second draft by Rowan, Russell and Ransome (1994). The most recent version of the statewide land systems has been edited by Rees in Rowan, Russell and Ransome Rees (2000). Digital Elevation Models (DEM), Geographic Information System (GIS), Airborne Gamma-Ray Spectrometry (AGRS), Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and satellite imagery have produced spatial datasets not previously available thereby presenting opportunities to re-assess landscapes, refine boundaries and define critical land attributes not previously possible.
