Once largely ignored as \u201coverburden\u201d by geologists, surficial deposits are now studied to address a wide range of issues related to the sustainability of human societies. Geologists use surficial deposits to determine the frequency and severity of past climatic changes, quantify natural and anthropogenic erosion rates, identify hazards, and calculate recurrence intervals associated with earthquakes, landslides, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. Increasingly, however, humans are eradicating the surficial geologic record in many key areas through progressive modification of Earth\u2019s surface.", "description": "2 p.", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The Geological Society of America" }, "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Springer, Kathleen B. kspringer@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Kathleen B.", "familyName": "Springer", "email": "kspringer@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-2404-0264", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2404-0264" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/geosciences-and-environmental-change-science-center" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Rech, Jason A.", "givenName": "Jason A.", "familyName": "Rech" }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Pigati, Jeffrey S. jpigati@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Jeffrey S.", "familyName": "Pigati", "email": "jpigati@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0001-5843-6219", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5843-6219" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/geosciences-and-environmental-change-science-center" } ] } ], "funder": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/geosciences-and-environmental-change-science-center" } ] }
