Environmental Geomorphology

Anotace

This course provides information of landscape dynamics, above all fluvial morphological processes. It is focused on geomorphological, exogenous and emerging forms in the landscape. These processes create both surface and subsurface shapes in the processes of erosion, transport and accumulation. Practical regionalization of surface forms in the landscape of CZ and evaluation of the influence of this processes on environment.
