Large Rivers [PDF ebook] 
Geomorphology and Management

Ủng hộ

Large Rivers: Geomorphology and Management explores an
important topic in geomorphology and sedimentology: the form and
function of major rivers. Our knowledge of the big rivers of the
world is limited. It is currently difficult to recognise large
rivers of the past from relict sedimentary deposits or to structure
management policies for long international rivers.
This exciting book brings together a set of papers on large
rivers of the world, as a unique introduction to a demanding
subject. The book includes thirty chapters and is organised into
three sections. The first part is on the environmental requirements
for creating and maintaining a major river system. The second is a
collection of case studies on 14 large rivers from different
continents, covering a range of physical environments. The third
section includes chapters on the measurement and management of
large rivers.
* First book to offer in a single volume state-of-the-art
knowledge on management and geomorphology of large rivers of the
world
* A pioneering study, pushing the boundaries of our knowledge
related to big rivers
* Includes comprehensive case studies covering the major large
rivers of the world including Amazon, Mississippi, Nile, Congo,
Indus, and Mekong
* Written by a leading team of distinguished, international
contributors
Large Rivers: Geomorphology and Management is essential
reading for postgraduate students and researchers in fluvial
geomorphology, hydrology, sedimentary geology, and river
management. It is also of relevance to engineers and environmental
consultants in the private and public sectors working on major
rivers of the world.
