The journal addresses the socio-environmental implications of geomorphological changes, focusing on how these changes affect human activities and natural resources.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of Climate Change:
A growing body of work is focusing on the spatial impacts of climate change on geomorphological processes, highlighting its relevance in understanding future landscape dynamics. - Technological Innovations in Geomorphology:
The use of cutting-edge technologies such as airborne LiDAR and remote sensing is increasingly prevalent, showcasing the journal's commitment to modernizing geomorphological research. - Anthropogenic Influences on Landscapes:
There is an emerging theme that examines how human activities, including urbanization and land use changes, are affecting geomorphological processes and landscapes. - Geoarchaeology:
Research at the intersection of geomorphology and archaeology is gaining traction, reflecting an interest in understanding how past human activities have shaped contemporary landscapes. - Hydrogeomorphological Interactions:
The exploration of hydrogeomorphological relationships is trending, particularly in relation to sediment transport and river dynamics, emphasizing the importance of water in shaping landforms.
Declining or Waning
- Historical Geomorphological Studies:
While historical analyses of geomorphological changes were once common, recent publications indicate a decrease in this focus, potentially due to a shift towards contemporary and applied geomorphology. - Purely Theoretical Approaches:
There appears to be a waning interest in purely theoretical discussions of geomorphological concepts without empirical data, as the journal increasingly favors studies with tangible fieldwork or case studies. - Geotechnical Studies:
Although geotechnical approaches have been featured, they are becoming less frequent, possibly overshadowed by more integrative studies that combine geomorphology with environmental and ecological aspects.
