Aeolian Geomorphology Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium 17 Routledge Library Editions: Geology Series
Coordonnateur : Nickling William G.
This book, first published in 1986, stems from the 1986 Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium. The topic was chosen because of the advances in the study of aeolian processes and landforms, particularly in the area of desertification, and the papers collected here clearly indicate that their study is not constrained by discipline boundaries but are of interest to geologists, physical geographers, soil scientists, meteorologists and engineers.
