Geomorphic response to environmental change: Coupling climate and
landscape records

=20

EGU General Assembly 2010: Session GM4.1

=20

Dear Colleagues,

=20

We are pleased to announce a session entitled &quot;Geomorphic response to
environmental change: Coupling climate and landscape records&quot; at the EGU
General Assembly in May 2010.

=20

Session description:

Environmental changes during the Quaternary can act as an important
model for understanding the nature and impact of future global change.
The oscillation of climates and environments during this period can be
long-term (i.e. interglacial/glacial cycles) or short-term (i.e.
sub-Milankovitch events such as Dansgaard-Oeschgar cycles, the Younger
Dryas or the Little Ice Age). With respect to understanding the impacts
of future climate change, establishing the magnitude of temperature and
precipitation fluctuations during these events is only part of the
issue, just as significant is understanding how Earth surface processes
will respond to these events. An important step in Quaternary
geomorphology is, therefore, being able to relate the shifts in climate
records (i.e. marine, ice-core, speleothem and pollen signals) to
changes in the activity of Earth surface processes (i.e. rivers, slopes,
glaciers, Aeolian and soils).

=20

The aim of this session is to provide a forum for researchers who are
working on geomorphic response to palaeoenvironmental change to present
their latest findings and discuss future directions. It is hoped that,
as well as providing case studies of coupled records, the session will
address some of the following key themes: 1) techniques for correlation
(geochronology, stratigraphy etc); 2) the identification and use of
suitable climate records; 3) quantifying the magnitude and timescales of
change in different geomorphic settings (e.g. fluvial, glacial, aeolian
etc); and 4) distinguishing climate driven response from other forcing
factors (tectonics, complex response, intrinsic forcing). The session
will have a very broad temporal and spatial scope, with submissions from
authors working on Pleistocene and Holocene time frames, long-term and
short-term climate forcing, in high through to low latitude environments
and covering the full scope of geomorphic processes.

=20

Abstracts must be submitted by the 18th of January 2010 using the EGU
General Assembly website:
