Summary Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Water Resources Monograph Series, Volume 19. What are the forms and processes characteristic of mountain rivers and how do we know them? Mountain Rivers Revisited, an expanded and updated version of the earlier volume Mountain Rivers, answers these questions and more. Here is the only comprehensive synthesis of current knowledge about mountain rivers available. While continuing to focus on physical process and form in mountain rivers, the text also addresses the influences of tectonics, climate, and land use on rWater resources monograph ;19.MountainsRiversMountains.Rivers.551.48/309143Wohl Ellen E.1962-865768Wohl Ellen E.1962-865768American Geophysical Union.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910130897603321Mountain rivers revisited1952695UNINA
