Geomorphology and Hydrology Summary

Geomorphology and Hydrology by R.J. Small

Taken from a series designed to cover most sixth form geographical studies, this book presents a survey of geomorphological and hydrological processes. Topics discussed include the hydrological system, fluvial processes and landforms, and coastal processes and landforms.

Part 1: the hydrological system; the hydrological cycle; precipitation and the hydrological cycle; the effect of vegetation on rainfall; run-off; the groundwater system. Part 2: fluvial processes and landforms; river energy and flow; erosion, transport and deposition by rivers; the form of river channels; the form of river valleys; the form and development of drainage patterns. Part 3: weathering and slope recession; the processes of weathering; the patterns of weathering; slope recession; slope transportation processes; slope profile analysis; slope evolution. Part 4: the landforms of cold environments; glacial environments; processes of glacial erosion, transport and deposition; the land forms of glaciated regions; periglacial environments; periglacial landscapes. Part 5: the landforms of hot environments; landform development in the humid tropics; landform development in the seasonally humid tropics; landform development in the arid and semi-arid tropics. Part 6: coastal processes and landforms; wave processes; coastal depositional landforms; coastal erosional landforms; changes of sea level and related coastal landforms. Part 7: landforms on a global scale; major structural features of continental land masses; major structural features of the ocean basins; the structural evolution of the continents and oceans.
