This book on Turkish geomorphology offers location descriptions, based on their dynamics and evolution processes, including hydrology, tectonics, volcanism, slopes, coasts, ice/snow, and wind. It presents landforms as a result of evolution (Quaternary, Holocene, historic) and in relation to the elements determining and/or impacting this evolution (vegetation, soil, hydrology, geology, climate, sea level and human action) as well as the resulting landscapes. Richly illustrated with pictures from each site, including geomorphological maps and sections, it explains the risks associated with the geomorphological dynamics (on local and global scales), natural and/or cultural heritage (archaeology, prehistory, history, architectural specifications adapted to the landscape), as well as challenges for human society (endangered landscape, protection/conservation rules/statutes, posters/paintings.).
Prof. Catherine Kuzucuoglu, the lead Editor, is Research Director in geomorphology and palaeoenvironments at the Laboratory of Physical Geography ofCNRS-INEE/Paris-1 University, at Meudon (France).
Attila Çiner, the second editor, is geologist and Director of Eurasia Institute of Earth Sciences at Istanbul Technical University, Turkey.
