Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

This series explores land and earthforms. It combines geographical information about earthforms in different areas of the world with basic mapping information and discussion of human, plant and animal adaptation to different environments. The books investigate what the different earthforms are, how they came about, their features and how they change over time. Land use and the impact of settlement are considered, together with exploitation of the environment. Each book discusses the climate, vegetation and wildlife of earthforms in different areas and adaptations to those areas. There are maps to illustrate the concepts being discussed on each spread.
