Written by an international team of geomorphologists, this book is a state-of-the-art assessment of how geomorphology contributes to the comprehension and mapping of hazardous Earth surface processes, many of which directly affect human societies. The authors demonstrate geomorphology's application to vulnerability and risk analysis, disaster prevention and sustainability.
