Description
A unique practical guide to engineering geomorphology.
This book combines the experience and case studies of a 40-year career in engineering geomorphology into a guide aimed at today's early career practitioners. The Author's role during these 40 years has pitched him into many technically-challenging engineering arenas, where geomorphological techniques have been used as tools to inform decision-making and design.
Together with a review of other related published work the outcome is a single volume that describes and illustrates how techniques of geomorphological assessment are used to help avoid and resolve land use planning and engineering difficulties associated with the terrain and its geohazards. 20-12-25
