Geomorphology of Lake-Catchment Systems A New Perspective from Limno
This book presents the study of limnogeomorphology, in which past proxy data such as lacustrine sediments with information on landform development can be linked to modern observed data acquired by instruments, including hydro-geomorphological and sediment

Preface
Geomorphology is an earth science of landform changes and earth-surface processes. The changes and processes have been essentially controlled with tectonic activities and climatic activities. Recently, anthropogenic activities have also been important agents for those processes. One of the ultimate objects of this particular earth science is to predict the altitude (z) of a certain point (x, y) on the earth’s surface at a certain time (t). However, it is nearly impossible to make that prediction exactly, even if all present sciences are used because the landform itself is an extremely complex system. It is of great significance, however, to grapple with the issue for the development and elaboration of earth science. Geomorphology of lake-catchment systems (limnogeomorphology) also aims to contribute to this aspect (prediction) of geomorphology. Proper proce
