About the Author
Dr. Achim A. Beylich is a geomorphologist with more than 26 years of work experience in field- and laboratory based quantitative process geomorphic research in various climatic environments and landscapes in Iceland, Sweden, Finland, Canada, Russia, Germany, Austria, Norway and Spain. Since 2004, he has been initiating and leading a number of large international and interdisciplinary research networks and programmes on geomorphologic earth surface processes, denudation, sedimentary source-to-sink fluxes and correlations, sedimentary budgets, and landscape evolution under ongoing or accelerated climate change and increasing anthropogenic impacts and pressures. During his scientific career he has been working and has carried out research and training activities at various research institutes and universities in Germany, Sweden, Iceland, Canada and Norway. Since March 2018, he has been Head of Operations of the Geomorphological Field Laboratory (GFL), with offices in Selbu (Trondheim, Norway) (main office) and Calpe (Alicante, Spain). In this role, he is currently both leading and participating in a number of national and international scientific initiatives and research projects related to the analysis of contemporary earth surface systems and processes, hazardous processes, and landscape evolution under ongoing or accelerated environmental change. The various field study areas in different countries include both undisturbed and anthropogenically modified landscape systems. He is a research scientist with formal Professor rank in geomorphology and with more than 110 scientific publications in journals and books and numerous edited works. He is Editor-in-Chief for the journal Geomorphology (Elsevier), Associate Editor for the journal Global and Earth Surface Processes Change (Elsevier), Topical Editor for the journal Earth System Science Data (ESSD) (Copernicus), and an Editorial Board Member for several other international scientific journals. He was the initiator and Chair of the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG) Working Group SEDIBUD (Sediment Budgets in Cold Environments, 2005-2017) and he has been the Chair (2017-2022) and a Steering Committee Member (2022-2026) for the IAG Working Group DENUCHANGE (Denudation and Environmental Changes in Different Morphoclimatic Zones). He was the founder and Chair of GeoNor, the IAG National Scientific Member (NSM) Norway (09/2019-01/2023), and he is the initiator and Chair of the IAG Nordic Network of Geomorphology Groups from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Iceland (IAG NSM GeoNorth, Nordic Group Member and IAG Network, since 2019). Since September 2022, he is the elected Secretary-General of the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG).
Daniel Vázquez Tarrío holds a PhD in Geology from the University of Oviedo and currently works as Staff Researcher at Geological and Mining Institute of Spain (IGME, CSIC). Previously, he was an Assistant Lecturer at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. He is a fluvial geomorphologist specialized in the study of river hydraulics, sediment transport and morphodynamics of gravel-bed rivers. His approach to these questions involves coupling the field monitoring of these processes with the computation and modelling of water and sediment flows. He has also worked extensively on the impact of human interventions (dams and embankments) and land-use changes on sediment balances and flood-hazards in river systems. Daniel Vázquez Tarrío has investigated in these topics within the framework of several research projects focused in many rivers from Spain and France.
Dr. Dongfeng Li is an Assistant Professor at the College of Environmental Sciences and Engineering, Peking University. He is leading the Cryosphere and River Lab. He is broadly interested in climate change, glaciers, permafrost, rivers, sediment transport, and hydropower dams. His current research focuses on sediment transport processes within the Earth’s cold environments, specifically driven by atmospheric, cryospheric, and hydrologic processes using remote sensing data and techniques, in-situ and field measurements, and numerical modeling approaches. During his PhD, he for the first time assessed the impacts of modern climate change on fluvial sediment fluxes in High Mountain Asia, for which he was awarded the 2019 IPCC Scholarship Award and the 2023 Grove Karl Gilbert Award of the American Association of Geographers. He is also the co-founder of the Chinese Geomorphology Club for early-career scientists and a core-member of the DENUCHANGE working group under the International Association of Geomorphologists. He serves as the associate editor of JGR: Earth Surface, editorial board of the Hydrological Processes, guest editors of Geomorphology and Earth Surface Processes and Landforms.
Marc Oliva holds a PhD in Geography from the Universitat de Barcelona, where he works now as research scientist and leads a research group on Antarctic, Arctic and Alpine Environments. He has carried out research and teaching activities in universities of Portugal, Canada, Switzerland, Spain and Russia. He has participated in tens of expeditions to Antarctica and the High Arctic. Apart from the Polar Regions, he has also conducted research in other mountain regions (Rocky Mountains, Alps, N Iceland, Pamir, Tien Shan, Pyrenees, and Cantabrian Mountains), which has provided him a wide comprehension of Earth surface processes in cold-climate environments. His research interests include the study of geomorphological processes and past environments and climate in the Polar Regions and high mountains using a wide range of natural records (glacial, periglacial, and lacustrine).
Mario Morellón Marteles is an assistant professor in Geology at the Complutense University of Madrid, Spain. His research has been focused on the reconstruction of past environmental changes based on the multidisciplinary analysis of lake sediments from key areas (Mediterranean Basin, South America, and Tibet) influenced by the main modes of climate variability (North Atlantic Oscillation, El Niño–Southern Oscillation and Indian Summer Monsoon) and/or different human impacts, from the late Pleistocene to the Anthropocene. His approach is based on geophysical, sedimentological and geochemical proxies but integrates biological indicators as well. During his career in Spain, United Kingdom and Switzerland, M. Morellón has led and participated in several projects and scientific initiatives aimed to disentangle the relative contributions of human activities and climate variability on recent environmental change, integrating different natural archives and proxies.

Terms of sale
General Terms and Conditions and Customer Information / Privacy Policy
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us as a provider (AHA-BUCH GmbH) via the Internet platforms AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any of your own terms and conditions used by you will be objected to
(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following regulations is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the contract
(1) The object of the contract is the sale of goods.
(2) If an article is listed by us at AbeBooks or ZVAB, the activation of the offer page at AbeBooks or ZVAB constitutes the binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions contained in the article page.
(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The goods intended for purchase are stored in the "shopping cart". Via the corresponding button in the navigation bar you can call up the "shopping cart" and make changes there at any time.
After calling up the "Checkout" page and entering the personal data as well as the payment and shipping conditions, all order data will be displayed again on the order overview page.
Before sending the order, you have the option of checking all information again, changing it (also via the "back" function of the Internet browser) or cancelling the purchase.
By submitting the order via the "Buy now" button, you declare the acceptance of the offer in a legally binding manner, whereby the contract is concluded.
(4) The processing of the order and transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partly automated by e-mail. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have stored with us is correct, that the receipt of the e-mails is technically ensured and, in particular, that spam filters do not prevent it.
§ 3 Right of retention, retention of title
(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if it concerns claims from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until full payment of the purchase price.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights exist.
(2) In the case of used goods, the warranty period is one year from delivery of the item, deviating from the statutory regulation. The shortening of the deadline does not apply:
- culpably caused damages attributable to us from injury to life, limb or health and in the case of other damages caused intentionally or through gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item.
(3) As a consumer, you are requested to check the item immediately upon delivery for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage and to inform us and the freight forwarder of any complaints as soon as possible. If you do not comply with this, this will have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.
§ 5 Choice of law, place of performance, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as this does not withdraw the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the state of the consumer's habitual residence (principle of favourability).
(2) The place of performance for all services arising from the existing business relationships with us as well as the place of jurisdiction is our registered office, insofar as you are not a consumer, but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if the domicile or habitual residence is not known at the time the action is brought. The right to appeal to the court at another statutory place of jurisdiction remains unaffected by this.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall expressly not apply.
