Modelling Geomorphological Systems
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.
High Resolution Flow Modelling in Hydrology and Geomorphology
This volume provides an integrated coverage of this topic, outlining major research developments that have taken place.
Process Models and Theoretical Geomorphology
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.
