Inhaltsangabe

Digital Terrain Analysis, Third Edition synthesizes knowledge on methods and applications of digital terrain analysis and geomorphometry in the context of multi-scale problems in soil science, geology, and polar research. Divided into four parts, the book examines the main concepts, principles, and methods of digital terrain modeling, methods for analysis, modeling, and mapping of spatial distribution of soil properties, techniques for recognition, analysis, and interpretation of topographically manifested geological features, and finally, polar research. This new release provides a theoretical and methodological basis for understanding and applying geographical modeling techniques.
