The new ELI for October is field based - 'Burbage Valley Part 2 - Landforms; identifying and interpreting landforms'.

In this activity, students use a set of photographs to identify a variety of landforms and attempt to explain their origin.

Related activities can be found in Fieldwork and in Geomorphology, both in our Investigating the Earth category.

   

This topic has been on the news quite a lot recently with many people, for example in Nepal, suffering the consequences. This ELI is appropriate 'Dam burst danger; modelling the collapse of a natural dam in the mountains – and the disaster that might follow'.
