Latin American geomorphologyfrom the crust to Mars /[electronic resource] :edited by Andrea Coronato, Grace B. Alves. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2024. - xiv, 139 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm. - The Latin American studies book series,2366-343X. - Latin American studies book series..

Chapter 1. Neotectonic influence on the geomorphology of the transform boundary between the Scotia and South American plates in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina -- Chapter 2. Glacial and periglacial studies related to rock-glacier evolution in the upper Cochiguás catchment, Coquimbo region, Central Chile -- Chapter 3. Deciphering the megafan responses to paleoenvironmental changes in the late Quaternary: lessons from the Pantanal wetland, Central Brazil -- Chapter 4. Detection of storm events and associated impacts on oceanic beaches between Ilha Grande and Cabo Frio, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil -- Chapter 5. Geomorphological effects of tropical cyclones in Costa Rica -- Chapter 6. Illumination condition in Mars and its relationship with water related features.

This book presents varied geomorphological topics and planetary studies from different geomorphological regions analysed by young researchers from Latin America, from Costa Rica to southern Argentina, from the mountains to the oceans, and from the Caribbean to the Scotia tectonic plates. The six chapters included in this book originate from presentations made during the "IAG Central and South American Webinar" carried on in March 2021 for the commemoration of the "Geomorphology Week", promoted by the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG) and coordinated by the invited book editors. The chapters develop topics related to landforms and geomorphological processes originated by modern tectonics along a transform tectonic plate boundary, by cryo-snowy environments in the drier Central Andes, by fluvial and littoral processes in the Brazilian inland and the Atlantic coast, and by high runoff generated by storm-cells driving into mountainous and wooded terrains. New insights on Mars water features research are also included in the book. Several chapters refer to risk assessment for society or resource management considerations; other chapters refer to present or recent geomorphological processes but others do so to those developed in the Quaternary.
