Abstract | In this course the student is familiarized with the manner in which glacial, periglacial, fluvial, gravitational, karst, coastal and aeolian processes produce characteristic landforms and sedimentary deposits. The student is introduced to subdivisions of the Quaternary, with a focus on climatic changes in the Alps. Competency in these themes is gained through practical exercises and discussion. | ||||
