Abstract

The intricate interplay between human activities and natural geomorphological processes profoundly shapes the landscapes we inhabit. This abstract explores the multifaceted impacts of human actions on the Earth's natural canvas, emphasizing the pivotal role of geomorphology in environmental management. From accelerated erosion and sedimentation to alterations in river morphology and coastal dynamics, human activities exert significant pressures on geomorphic systems, posing challenges for sustainable land use and ecosystem conservation. Geomorphologists play a critical role in assessing these impacts, employing a range of techniques to analyze landscape changes, model future scenarios, and inform evidence-based decision-making. By integrating geomorphological insights into environmental management strategies, policymakers and land managers can mitigate environmental degradation, enhance resilience to natural hazards, and promote the sustainable stewardship of Earth's landscapes for present and future generations.
