Landscapes and landforms of Israel
Landscapes and landforms of Israel[electronic resource] /edited by Amos Frumkin, Nurit Shtober-Zisu. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2024. - xii, 388 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - World geomorphological landscapes,2213-2104. - World geomorphological landscapes..

Geology of Israel -- Climate of Israel -- Paleoclimate of Israel -- The Paleo-Anthropocene and the genesis of the current landscape of Israel -- Landform evolution of Israel -- Palaeoseismic landforms and sites in Israel -- Fluvial landscapes of Israel -- Stream valleys of the Golan -- Terrestrial notches in limestone cliffs -- Long term fire effects on the Israeli Mediterranean landscapes -- Pull-apart morphotectonics of Hula valley and Mt. Hermon -- Geomorphology of a basalt plateau - Golan Heights -- The Mediterranean coast of Israel -- Seafloor geomorphology of the eastern-most Mediterranean basin and margin -- The 20th century impact on the Israeli coastline -- Coastal plain sands -- Canyons and dry waterfalls of the Judean Desert -- The Landscapes of the Lower Jordan River -- Paleo lakes in the Dead sea basin -- Corrosional and erosional landscapes of Nahal Hever, Judean Desert -- Landscape of Mt. Sedom salt diapir -- Fluvial response to the DS level fall in recent decades: incision channels -- A geo-environmental transect across the Judean Desert -- Ancient landscape and paleoenv. of Jerusalem -- Denudation of carbonate landscapes in central Israel -- Central mountain ridge of Israel: landscape evolution -- Landscape Evolution of the Central Negev since the Oligocene -- Arava Valley and southern Negev - morphotectonic landscapes and development -- Sand bodies and dunes of Israel - dynamics and morphology -- Loess landscapes of the Negev -- The Ancient Agricultural Landscape of the Central Negev Desert -- Nahal Yael landscape, southern Negev -- Impacts of climatic changes on the evolution of the landscapes at a desert fringe, Israel -- Urban landscape and flash-flood hazard in a hyper arid zone: Eilat -- Cavernous weathering landforms (tafoni) -- Geodiversity and Geoheritage of Erosional Craters of the Negev.

This edited book will bring together a collection of works that comprehensively address the various landforms of Israel and how their evolution has been shaped over time by multiple geomorphic agents. Israel is a small country with highly diverse landscapes and climates; this overview of the most prominent landscapes will describe the processes, origins and the environmental significance of those landscapes. The sites described in this book include lowlands to mountains, the rift valley, and desert to Mediterranean zones, along with long-term interactions between their geomorphology and people, which largely contributed to modern landscapes. The book will be relevant to those interested in the geology, physical geography and history of Israel, and the processes that shaped its unique landscapes.
