Price, Simon J.; Ford, Jonathan R.; Cooper, Anthony H.; Waters, Colin; Aldiss, Don; Brown, Teresa; Smith, Alan. 2013 Humans as geological and geomorphological agents in the Anthropocene. [Other] In: IAG 8th International Conference on Geomorphology, Paris, France, 27-31 Aug 2013. (Unpublished)

Abstract
Humans have become dominant forces in the transformation of the Earth’s landscape and its corresponding geological and geomorphological response. The deliberate, current and historical anthropogenic modification of the landscape and its subsurface creates sediments and landforms in the form of artificial ground. Artificial ground is recognisable as distinct geomorphological landforms or where its sediments are buried in the ground.
