Physical Geography of The Global Environment - Second Edition
About the cover : The natural landscape transformed by human action : only the hilltops still carry the forest that once draped the hillsides and valleys around the village of Khodi in lower Nepal. The slope have been terraced and now stand under rice; irrigation controls the flow of water into the stream below. But evidence of the natural forces at work here still marks the countryside. The incised river is forming a new floodplain, and an extensive higher terrace reveals an earlier stage of its existence. A small remnant of a still higher terrace, evincing an even older stage, can be seen in the upper center of the photo.
