Kelletat | 视频video | | 概述 | Easy to comprehend featuring more images than text.All types of terrestrial environments and groups of landforms at a glance, through images and explanatory text.Over 200 colour images from Google Ear | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .This book of phenomenal illustrations provides a wealth of visual information on the wide variety of landform processes over all latitudes, climates and geological time-scales. It invites you to observe the surface of planet Earth, to appreciate its astonishing beauty and to explore scientific explanations for the form of our landscapes..250 full-colour images from Google Earth enable all types of terrestrial environments and landforms to be appreciated at a glance. Images are explained with scales, coordinates, explanatory text and references, making the landform processes active on our globe easy for the reader to comprehend..See the effects of both sudden and slow forming agents such as the impact of a comet or meteorite, and erosion and deposition processes through wind, flowing water, creeping glacier ice, or frost in the ground. Appreciate how landscapes are shaped by processes such as weathering, transport and erosion and how that erosion enables us to look into endogenic processes (those within the Earth´s crust), called tectonics. These images and the processes that they document show that continents are shifting, mountains are uplifting, and ocean bottoms may sink deeper | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | 关键词 | Earth Surface Forming; Endogenic Processes; Endogenic Landforms; Exogenic Processes and Landforms; Extr | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-017-9713-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-024-0625-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-017-9713-9 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2015 |
