Geomorphology and Land Use Dynamics Description Geomorphology and Land Use Dynamics (GLD) will support studies of: (1) the dynamic processes that produce landforms and the relationship to atmospheric and hydrologic agents and their underlying structures; (2) the history of geologic changes recorded in surface features; (3) airborne and space borne imaging of the landscape; (4) the study of sustainable landscapes and anthropogenically or naturally modified landscapes, and (5) changes in land uses and land covers that are critical to ecosystem functioning, services, and human welfare. GLD includes computer analysis of remote sensing (airborne, satellite) data using pattern recognition tools. This is a fast-growing area of research because of its applications to ecological, hydrological and social systems (including national security applications). Target Dates and Deadlines January 16 and July 16, annually
