The [course_title] course teaches the quantitative analysis of geomorphic processes. You will learn the quantitative basics of mechanics of fluvial, hillslope, and glacial processes. Essentials of weathering, soil formation, runoff, erosion, slope stability, sediment transport, river morphology, and glacial erosion will also be covered in the course. Finally, you will know the system responses to climatic and tectonic forcings, including glaciation, sea level change.
Shortly, the course explains the interaction of climate, tectonics, and surface processes in the sculpting of Earth’s surface.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
