Produktinformationen zu „Flood and Megaflood Processes and Deposits (PDF)“
The aim of this publication is the understanding of large floods
and their impact on the Earth's surface. The major objectives are:
1) to take a second look at what constitutes a megaflood that the
principle of uniformitarianism is at some loss to explain and 2) to
try to determine what could happen in such large floods by
analyzing those that occur in front of glaciers, in alluvial-fans
and in alluvial valleys.
The products of these floods are presented in terms of
sedimentary deposits, erosional features and damage to human
activities.
The volume bears out the concept that sedimentological analysis
can be a powerful tool, not only for reconstructing processes that
have acted on ancient landscapes, but also as a technique for risk
assessment of certain troubled areas. Therefore, this volume is of
interest not only to sedimentologists/gemorphlogists, but also to
engineers, landuse planners and anyone interested in the
interrelation between humans and the environment.
