Paraglacial geomorphology is the study of earth-surface processes, sediments, landforms,
landsystems and landscapes that are directly conditioned by former glaciation and …

In recent decades, the land-ocean aquatic continuum, commonly defined as the interface, or
transition zone, between terrestrial ecosystems and the open ocean, has undergone …

Data and computer simulations are reviewed to help better define the timing and magnitude
of human influence on sediment flux—the Anthropocene epoch. Impacts on the Earth …

Sediment flux to the coastal zone is conditioned by geomorphic and tectonic influences
(basin area and relief), geography (temperature, runoff), geology (lithology, ice cover), and …

The world's coastlines represent a myriad of dynamic and constantly changing
environments. Heavily settled and intensely used areas, they are of enormous importance to …

A unifying attribute of all forms of paraglacial response is that deglaciation results in the
exposure of unstable or metastable sediment sources that are subsequently tapped by a …

Paleo-lakes in the western United States provide geomorphic and hydrologic records of
climate and drainage-basin change at multiple time scales extending back to the Miocene …

Many different kinds of classification have been applied to coasts in attempts to characterize
dominant features in terms of physical or biological properties, modes of evolution, or …

This book is a comprehensive overview of the ever-captivating field of glaciation from the
perspective of glacial landsystems. This approach models the many processes, forms and …

An increasing need exists for regional-scale measurements of shoreline change to aid in
management and planning decisions over a broad portion of the coast and to inform …
