molamola.gif - 2504 BytesData/Information librariesarriba2.JPG - 3530 Bytes Coastal Data Terrain Data
  • National Imagery and Mapping Agency Digital Terrain Elevation Data: A uniform matrix of terrain elevation values which provides basic quantitative data for systems and applications that require terrain elevation, slope, and/or surface roughness information. A good example that should be followed in the UK. (US)
Karst Data
  • World Cave Database: A database of long and deep caves from all around the world. It comes currently in three

  • versions: sorted by depth (deeper than 300m), by length (longer than 3kms), and classified by country. (France)

Coastal Processes

  • East Yorkshire Coast - Geology and Geomorphology: An illustrated brochure showing the relationship of the visible landforms of the Yorkshire Coast to the underlying geology and the geomorphic processes that have shaped them. An excellent UK case study providing a useful insight into coastal processes. (UK)
  • Chris Metzler Coastal Erosion Field Trip: A guide to coastal erosion in the northern part of San Diego county, California, from fletcher cove in solana beach to the mouth of the San Diego river in Del Mar, provides a detailed account of the characteristics found and also provides images and exercises. (US)
Glaciation and Periglaciation
  • David M. Pinkham, NASA Glaciers: Undergraduate resource providing a broad general basis and general introduction to the nature of glaciation and glaciers and also introducing a detailed case study of the Muir Glacier. (US)

The route follows many alpine glacial and periglacial forms, includes photographs and field exercises. (US)
  • Mendenhall Glacier: Introductory level photographic essay investigating glacial landforms in general, the Juneau icefield, the Mendenhall glacier and it's formation. There are exercises provided and useful illustrations. (US)
Hydrology Karst Environments
