内容説明・目次
内容説明
This collection of papers from the 23rd Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium is intended to: 1. reevaluate the influence of systems theory in geomorphology; 2. explore links between traditional systems-oriented approaches and contemporary applications of nonlinear dynamical systems theory in geomorphology; and 3. present cutting-edge examples of the analysis of geomorphic systems. Contributions encompass hillslope, fluvial, coastal, aeolian, and tectonic geomorphology. This volume should be of interest to geomorphologists, physical geographers, and geologists, as well as to other earth and environmental scientists who deal with landscapes and earth surface systems.
目次
Preface. 1. Overview. The end of equilibrium? (J.D. Phillips). 2. Conceptual Frameworks. Theoretical and methodological premises of geomorphological forecasting (A.M. Trofimov and J.D. Phillips). Limitations of the system approach in geomorphology (A.E. Scheidegger). Nonlinear dynamical systems in geomorphology: revolution or evolution? (J.D. Phillips). 3. Historical Perspectives. Hutton to Horton: views of sequence, progression and equilibrium in geomorphology (B.A. Kennedy). New wine in old bottles: the historiography of a paradigm change (D. Sack). 4. Nonlinear and Nonequilibrium Behavior. Equilibrium, disequilibrium, and nonequilibrium landforms in the landscape (W.H. Renwick). Some comments on equilibrium concepts and geomorphic systems (L. Mayer). On the multifractal characterization of river basins (E.J. Ijjasz-Vasquez, I. Rodriguez-Iturbe and R.L. Bras). Nonequilibrium geomorphic processes and deterministic chaos (G.P. Malanson, D.R. Butler and K.P. Georgakakos). 5. Equilibria Thresholds and Nonlinearities: Case Studies. Process interactions, temporal scales and the development of hillslope gully systems: Howgill Fells, northwest England (A.M. Harvey). Energy, time, and channel evolution in catastrophically disturbed fluvial systems (A. Simon). Thresholds and the spatial variability of flood power during extreme floods (F.J. Magilligan). Response of the Connecticut River estuary to late Holocene sea level rise (P.C. Patton and G.S. Horne). An equilibrium relationship for shear velocity and apparent roughness length in aeolian saltation (D.J. Sherman) 6. Modelling Geomorphic Systems. Statistical models of fluvial systems (B.L. Rhoads).
