Multinational contributors present articles on a wide range of themes but with important convergences of interest on critical topics. A group of papers on tectonic and general approaches reviews the role of randomness in process models and provides a novel theoretical analysis of the relationships between tectonic and erosional forces. Selections on channel processes reflect current interest in gravel bed rivers, related to their widespread occurrence in mountain areas and in braided systems. Articles on valley heads bring together views from several, sometimes conflicting, research approaches. The final group of contributions illustrate the range of problems to which theoretical methods in geomorphology can now be applied.

Discusses a broad spectrum of topics in current modelling research in hillslope and river channel processes. The book is designed to provide a coherent basis for understanding the potential range of modelling activity within hillslope and channel process investigations and to give readers an appreciation of the modelling challenges that still remain. Topics cover research in specific areas of process study, including equilibrium, mathematical, network, and flow process models. Also discussed are alternative modelling approaches within specific fields, model validation and verification, and the development of computer simulation as a significant and established element in geomorphological investigations.

Perspectives on the future directions of research in geomorphology form the major theme of this volume. Ten geomorphologists were asked to "star-gaze", that is provide opinions about the future direction of their specialty. Each paper is supported by the literature that currently defines the research frontier

This book demonstrates the linkages among geomorphic principles, environmental impacts caused by human activities, and the effectiveness of reclamation practices. Intended for both an academic and industrial audience, it will help in gaining an appreciation of economic and legal considerations that influence industrial decision-making and operations. Topics include: lands disturbed by recreational use, lands disturbed by surface mining of coal, lands disturbed by construction activities, and geomorphic perspectives on the design and management of disturbed lands.

This book comprises selected and fully-refereed papers from the BGRG Annual Conference, 'Tracers in Geomorphology'. which was held in September 1998. The theme chosen for the conference reflects the growing interest amongst the geomorphological community in studies of fine sediment provenance and in the development of methods for tracing coarse sediments. Tracers in Geomorphology is the first book which contains a state-of-the-art review of the use of tracer technologies for coarse and fine sediment transport in a range of geomorphological environments and over a range of time-scales. It is divided into six sections; background and recent developments, atmospheric and hydrological tracers, tracers for investigating soil erosion and hill-slope processes, tracing fluvial sediments, tracers for coastal transport studies and tracers in palaeoenvironmental investigations. Authored by international experts in their field, this book will be of enormous value to postgraduates, researchers and professionals in the fields of geomorphology, hydrology, environmental, earth and soil science, coastal and catchment management.
