商品描述
This book focuses on a significant branch of anthropogeomorphology, which is not adequately studied: the impact of transportation systems on altering earth surface processes and landforms. This book fills the gap with in-depth study on the interaction between individual modes of transport network (e.g., trail, roads, railways, waterways, airports, and tunnel) and surface hydro-geomorphology with intensive literature review, fieldwork, geo-environmental modelling, mapping, case studies, and examples from different parts of the world. On the one hand, this book also addresses the vulnerability of transport networks from climate change and critical geo-hazards like floods, landslides, etc. with case studies from the high-risk zones of India. Overall, this book promotes peaceful harmony between the transport network and its surrounding landscapes as an essential lesson for policymakers, planners, and stakeholders.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書專注於人類地貌學的一個重要分支,這一領域尚未得到充分研究:交通系統對地表過程和地形變化的影響。本書通過深入研究不同交通運輸網絡(例如小徑、道路、鐵路、水路、機場和隧道)與地表水文地貌之間的相互作用,填補了這一空白,並進行了廣泛的文獻回顧、實地考察、地環境建模、繪圖、案例研究以及來自世界各地的範例。一方面,本書還探討了氣候變遷和重大地質災害(如洪水、土石流等)對交通網絡的脆弱性,並提供了來自印度高風險區域的案例研究。總體而言,本書促進了交通網絡與其周圍景觀之間的和平和諧,這對於政策制定者、規劃者和利益相關者來說是一個重要的教訓。
作者簡介
Dr Suvendu Roy is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography, Khalisani Mahavidyalaya, West Bengal, India. Dr Roy focuses his research interest on the interface between anthropogenic activities and changing channel and hillslope geomorphology of the tropical region. This includes field-based studies to identify micro-geomorphological processes and landforms. He is also interested in the application of GIS and remote sensing to identify the impact of human activities on landscapes. He earned a BA in geography at Burdwan Raj College, The University of Burdwan, and an MA in geography (specialised in advanced geomorphology) at The University of Burdwan (India). He earned a PhD in geography (anthropogeomorphology) at the University of Kalyani (India). He has more than 25 research publications in various Scopus and SCI indexed journals of international and national repute. Since 2013, he is deeply involved in his research: human-induced changes in river systems. He is the life member of International Association of Hydrological Sciences (IAHS); Foundation of Practicing Geographer (Kolkata, India). Indian Institute of Geomorphologists (Allahabad, India). He is an invited reviewer of different Scopus and SCI indexed journals of Springer, Elsevier, Taylor & Francis, Willy, Science Domain groups of publication. His main areas of innovative research include Transportation Geomorphology, Anthropogeomorphology. Recently, he has published two edited books "Anthropogeomorphology of Bhagirathi-Hooghly River System in India", published by CRC Press in October 2020, and 'Floods in the Ganga-Brahmaputra-Meghna Delta' published by Springer Geography in February 2023.
