Arid geomorphology : investigating past, present and future changes

Auteur :
TOOTH, S.

Description :
The A. focuses on certain pervasive, emerging, or overarching themes in arid geomorphological research, with arid defined broadly to include hyper-arid, semi-arid and dry-subhumid regions as well. 3 themes are studied : 1) reconstructing past changes : chronologies of arid landscape development (luminescence dating); 2) assessing present changes : the relationship between modelling and field observations; 3) predicting future changes : arid landscape response to twenty-first-century environmental changes.
