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: γη, ge , "earth"; μορφή, morf© , "form"; and λόγος, logos , "knowledge") is the study of landforms and the processes that shape them. Geomorphologists seek to understand why landscapes look the way they do: to understand landform history and dynamics, and predict future changes through a combination of field observation, physical experiment, and numerical modeling . Geomorphology is practiced within geology geodesy geography archaeology , and civil and environmental engineering . Early studies in geomorphology are the foundation for pedology , one of two main branches of soil science Landforms evolve in response to a combination of natural and anthropogenic processes. 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. Landscapes are also lowered by subsidence, either due to tectonics or physical changes in underlying sedimentary deposits. These processes are each influenced differently by climate ecology , and human activity.

Also please inform me of interesting links you find that I can add to these pages. The links will lead you to data and information that will greatly help in your decision of a research topic. See Class Notes for course logistics. Introduction: Earth scientists are increasingly called upon to evaluate past, present and future environmental changes on both local and global scales. They can be called upon to predict the long-term stability of hazardous waste sites or to mitigate the effects of natural disasters. Vital to evaluating and predicting environmental change is an understanding of the origin and evolution of topographic features and the role of groundwater in the environment. Geomorphology is concerned with the evolution of landscapes and the earth surface processes that form and modify them. Since the land surface is located at the interface of the earth's lithosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere, geomorphology is necessarily interdisciplinary. In addition to the natural forces modifying landscapes, anthropogenic forces contribute to surface modification and will be included in the study of geomorphology

Back Home Simply put, Geomorphology is the science of landforms. It is the science that provides with a closer look at the Earth's surface and the processes that have formed them. Although Geomorphology is concerned with landforms that currently exist, past landforms and events must be examined in order to fully understand how they came about. Although the term Geomorphology is a relatively new term (1880's), the examination of the forces of nature that have impacted the Earth's surface extends back into the days of early Greek and Roman philosophers such as Aristotle and Seneca. Their writings included ideas on stream erosion, earthquakes and other deformations. Though these early philosophers speculated on the ideas of landscape evolution, these processes and thoughts were not fully examined until just before the 1800's. In 1785, James Hutton began to develop on ideas on the formation of the surface. He argued that the surfaces were formed by slow, but continuous erosive processes instead of great catastrophic events as others have thought. From Hutton's work, came Charles Lyell's principles of Uniformitarianism. These 4 principles are: Uniformity of Law- it is assumed that natural laws are a constant.

Click here for an overview of the project! Welcome to the home page of the Ozarks Stream Geomorphology Project , a research project investigating the effects of land use and climate change on Ozarks streams and their ecology. This project is designed to provide land managers with information that will help conserve aquatic habitat in the context of environmental change. Research is conducted by the Biological Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey and involves a team of hydrologists from the Columbia Environmental Research Center in collaboration with biologists from the Cooperative Research Unit, University of Missouri-Columbia . This web site will guide you through the project's principal research questions, the biological and geological tools used, and will link you to technical publications.
