The authors summarize current applications and research methods in several specific Earth science areas,including glacial chronology and geomorphology,tectonic geomorphology, site-specific weathering,erosion and regolith/soil production,watershed a.

In this short note we briefly review the research of tectonic geomorphology and report preliminary results on tectonic geo- morphology of the Kenya River, northwestern margin of the Tibet Plateau.

Fluvial erosion is among the core components in tectonic geomorphology.

Studies on tectonic landform show that the average sinister slip rate is 1.

Morphotectonics studies the occurrence and development of tectonic landforms as well as the relationship between landforms and tectonics, with an aim to reveal the dynamics in the earth.

The study to tectonic landform is an analysis using integrated methods of geomorphology, geodynamics and structural geology.

Late Cenozoic morphotectonic features of the thrust belt in the front of the West Kunlun Mountains.;

Apatite fission track (AFT) thermochronology of seven samples from the Xiaonanchuan pluton in the Kunlun pass area was carried out to determine the timing of cooling and the relation between the exhumation and the morphotectonic processes.

This paper constructs a digital elevation model(DEM) of the Dabie orogenic belt and performs a modeling analysis of its tectonogeomorphology based on the techno-platform of the geographic information system(GIS) and shuttle radar topography mission(SRTM) topographical data.

The progress in studies of the late Cenozoic global structural geomorphology and environmental change are introduced briefly focused on the following subjects: the global tectonic uplift; the formation of intraplate orogens and arches; the undulation of global sea level; the closure and open of some key ocean gateways.
