Geomorphology Overview Geomorphology, the study of landforms and land-forming processes, is at the very heart of current concerns for environmental change attributable to climate forcing and human impacts. It studies the effects of precipitation and runoff on mass wasting and fluvial erosion; of global warming on aridity, wind action, and sea-level changes; of global cooling on glacial and periglacial processes; and the role of human activity in reshaping much of the landscape. Geomorphology at UCLA is best described as earth science in a human context. The graduate program in geomorphology has been in existence for more than 30 years, during which time some 80 students have completed MA or PhD degrees and have gone on to successful careers in academia, government, and industry. At the present time, the program is led by Antony Orme and Stanley Trimble, with support of other faculty members in climatology, biogeography, and remote sensing, as well as close liaisons with cognate disciplines across the campus. Over the years, research support has been derived from the National Science Foundation, the US Navy Office of Naval Research, the US Army Corps of Engineers, the US Environmental Protection Agency, and various state and local governments. Funding continues at a healthy level. An important aspect of the program is the integration of field investigations with laboratory analyses and remote sensing. The principals have worked extensively in North America, Europe, and Africa, but it is the many challenges of the regional environment of California and the American Southwest that continue to attract graduate students. Themes such as the role of tectonism, eustasy, and isostasy in sea-level changes, of vegetation change and urbanization on mass movement and erosion, of climate change on lacustrine and desert systems, and of fluvial and marine impacts on estuaries and wetlands exemplify the focus of recent and continuing research efforts.

Maybe you have been to the Delta Planetarium on a school field trip or with your parents. If not, ask your teacher about it or have your parents take you there. It is something you will not forget soon. Earth is our home in the solar system and is shaped like a ball. It has areas of water and land and spins as it rotates around the sun. In case you are wondering, a solar system is the place where the sun is. Our Earth is called a planet which are large masses that rotate around a sun. There are many solar systems which we call galaxies. All of these are a part of what refer to as the universe about which we are continuously learning more about as we make new discoveries.

A $7 lab and field trip fee is required and will be collected the first week of class. This course will sensitize you to how the global environment operates at mega and mesoscales, and the role of Homo sapiens within it. Grading: Total points (200 possible) Lecture Midterm Final Lab Exercises/Participation Quizzes Examinations in lecture will consist of multiple choice, true-false, and possibly matching. Diagrams and line sketches may be integrated in test questions and the exams are machine graded.

Geography 100 Earth System Science: Outline and readings The instructor is R. Gilbert, E101-102 MacIntosh Corry Hall (basement at the southwest corner of the building). Because the lectures are very full, we must move quickly and there is no opportunity for questions during lectures. However, students are welcome to come to my office and ask questions or discuss course content at any time from about 8:00 am to 5:00 pm except when other duties take me from the office. Appointments are normally not necessary. A face-to-face visit is almost always more useful and more complete than communication by email or telephone; if you try you will normally be directed to come to the office. If you have questions about tutorials and assignments, you should direct these to your teaching assistant. There are 15 lectures scheduled in the Earth System Science section of Geography 100. The timetable for these and for the tutorials and assignments is found in the Timetable The material below provides the outline for each lecture, some of the important terms and concepts, and a list of required readings. You should examine each outline before the lecture and you should do the reading before the lecture too Otherwise you may find the pace in the lectures too fast.
