The work comprehensively explains the geomorphological forms of high mountains using many examples like glacial erosion forms and deposits such as moraines and gravel terraces, which are illustrated with numerous photographs. Landslide landscapes, volcanoes, weathering, and erosion are other examples discussed. These examples are from across the world, including the Himalayas, the Alps, the Andes, and the Southern Alps of New Zealand. This work is useful for laymen who are interested in geosciences, especially high-mountain landforms, as well as for students and teachers of earth sciences. 410 0$aSpringer Geography 606 $aGeomorphology 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aLandscape ecology 606 $aGeomorphology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J16010 606 $aPhysical Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J16000 606 $aLandscape Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19058 615 0$aGeomorphology. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 0$aLandscape ecology. 615 14$aGeomorphology. 615 24$aPhysical Geography. 615 24$aLandscape Ecology. 676 $a551.41 676 $a577 676 $a910 676 $a910.02 700 $aStahr$b Alexander$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062816 702 $aLangenscheidt$b Ewald$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299444003321 996 $aLandforms of High Mountains$92528651 997 $aUNINA
