About the book
A pioneering work on landform development under processes associated with running water. Emphasizing the authors' field and laboratory studies, the book covers processes of landscape change, process and form (including drainage basins, water and sediment in channels, channel form and process, and hillslope processes), and effects of time (geochronology, drainage pattern evolution, channel changes, and hillslope evolution). Includes a new foreword by Dr. Ellen Wohl and two appendixes for unit conversion and nomenclature.
