Geomorphology and Groundwater

Description

Geomorphology and Groundwater is a state-of-the-art scientific field that focuses on the overlaps between geomorphology and hydrology. The study of groundwater helps to understand the local geomorphology, deposition of minerals, and even climate change records. The groundwater transportation carries the minerals, plays important role in deposition, sets up the distribution of them and affects water quality simultaneously. This lead to environmental issues and geographic phenomena. The understanding of groundwater processes contributes valuable information to a broad of geological topics. In this book, each article covers a specific geomorphology and groundwater topic, including studies on geotechnical methodologies for groundwater or beneath waters, weathering data from the angle of geomorphology, building models to understand cause and dynamic of landscapes or landforms and studies about hazard assessment and management.
