Mountains cover about a quarter of the world’s land surface and provide water and mineral resources, timber and non-timber forest products, and many other food, fiber and fuel products. This ...

Geomorphology – the study of landforms and the processes that shape the Earth’s surface – integrates observations of tectonic, fluvial, glacial, aeolian, and coastal dynamics to explain landscape ...

Why do landscapes look the way they do? What controls the height and jaggedness of high mountain peaks? What role does glacial erosion play in shaping landscapes, and how will it be affected by ...

We study snow, glaciers and ice and how they impact landscapes and hydrology. We employ a range of field and laboratory approaches to measure and model the many surface processes that are involved.

This research was undertaken with resources from the National Computational Infrastructure supported by the Australian Government and from Artemis HPC supported by the University of Sydney. This work ...

Interactions between iron, water, oxygen and ions quickly become complex. MTU scientists developed a more precise method to observe how iron minerals like rust form. One can easily see with the naked ...
