This course focuses on the origin/evolution of landforms and the physical processes responsible for their creation and modification.
❑
The course is structured to begin with the big picture view of geomorphology (whole-earth shape and the large-scale details of the continents and ocean basins), then move on to the tectonic construction of landscapes, thermally-driven processes including
glacial/periglacial systems,
transport
of material
through fluvial and hillslope systems, sediment
entrainment and deposition, and landscapes at the coastal/marine interface
