About the work
Global Geomorphology (Global Geomorphology) provides a sweeping synthesis of the processes that shape Earth's surface, from tectonic foundations to climatic sculpting, and from microscopic soil formation to continent-wide landform evolution. The book offers a cohesive framework for understanding how landforms emerge, transform, and persist, making it essential for students, researchers, and professionals in geology, geography, and environmental science. This edition bears the 13-digit ISBN (9780582301566) as a precise identifier of its authoritative contents.
Summary
Across its pages, the text interweaves theoretical models with observational case studies to illuminate the dynamic interplay between internal and external forces driving geomorphological change. It traverses fluvial incision, glacial sculpting, coastal dynamics, tectonic uplift, and soil-geomorphology interactions, while also addressing landscape response to climate fluctuations and human modification. With rigorous analysis and clear explanations, the work builds a unifying vocabulary for interpreting landform evolution at multiple scales.
About the authors
Michael Summerfield, a leading figure in geomorphology, brings decades of fieldwork and synthesis to the volume, melding practical insight with theoretical rigor. His collaboration with Michael A. Summerfield consolidates complementary strengths in landform analysis and environmental change, reflecting a shared commitment to advancing a holistic understanding of Earth's surface processes. The authors’ authoritative perspective draws on extensive research across diverse terrains, from mountain belts to continental platforms.
In brief
Global Geomorphology delivers a comprehensive, integrated view of how landforms form and evolve under the influence of tectonics, climate, and human activity, supported by detailed analysis and robust examples.
