Abstract
Carter, A. (2010) Review of Bull, W. B. (2008). Tectonic Geomorphology of Mountains: A New Approach to Paleoseismology. Geology Magazine, 147 (1), pp.156–159. Over the last decade or so tectonic geomorphology has grown in popularity to become an integral part of the Earth Science curriculum. The widely adopted introductory textbook Tectonic Geomorphology by Burbank & Anderson provides an excellent overview of the diverse range of topics that encompass the subject but little else has been published that adequately builds on this foundation. Tectonic Geomorphology of Mountains: A New Approach to Paleoseismology is a welcome arrival providing substantive and in-depth exploration of mountain geomorphology over short timescales (Holocene to Present) that relate to the earthquake cycle, the latter aspect rather naughtily downplayed by use of small print on the book cover.
