Geomorphology is the scientific study of land forms and the processes that shape them. Geomorphologists seek to understand why landscapes look the way they do: to understand land form history and dynamics and predict future changes through a combination of field observation, physical experiment, and numerical modeling.

The present text has been designed as a manual which looks into the processes, practices, techniques and technologies which make up the field of geomorphology. It seeks to serve as a text for students of geography which caters to their need for a comprehensive and insightful text on the rather marginalized subject of geomorphology, and how geomorphology figures within the field of geographical studies. Incorporated into the text are also insights into the current trends and developments in the field of geomorphology, and how geomorphology contends with the various scientific researches.
