Steepland geomorphology concerns landscapes which are either active tectonically or influenced by volcanism. Using case studies, this text illustrates the differing conceptual frameworks that can be used to model and manage such unstable and variable regions.

The purpose of this book is to demonstrate that the land-based geomorphological evidence of environmental change from late Pleistocene, Holocene, historical and contemporary time periods remain central to the understanding of environmental change both at the global and regional scale.
