Description
In this book, Dr. Alok Dubey, an emerging environmental Geomorphologits among the younger and upcoming scintilating Indian Earth Scientists, presents his penetrating study on environmental geomorphology of Trans Yamuna Region revealing various functional relationships among the complex components and factors of geomorphic environment, like morphodynamic processes and associated morphological features, man as a geomorphic agent and degrading environment of geomorphic milieu. The Use of computors and sophisticates statistical techniques for the analysis of morphometric and recent hydrographic information about the rivers Ganga, Yamuna, Tons, etc., application fo the thin-sections of minerals and laboratory tests for rock and soil minerals and chemicals for interpretation of geological information; and regorus field-surveys and traversing of rivers Ganga and Yamuna through speed-boat for the first-hand knowledge of various geomorphic features, collection of soil and rock samples and the study of bank-morphology are the high-lights of the work.
