Cll~ate is a word that includes a great deal, indeed: Geomorpholo-
.s assume that the effects of climate and climate change are reflected
t:eslonal and depositional processes and ultimately in the landscape.
_tample, morphoclimatic regions have been identified wherein the cli-
e determines to a significant extent both the efficiency and type of
~`-process as well as the landforss that result (Stoddart, 1459;
~~a, 1968), but there is no quantitative description of these supposed
`:erences. However, the effects of the greatly different river flow
;ices experienced throughout the world (Parde, 1964; Beckinsale, 1969) and
e different types of sediments provided by tropical as compared to semi-
=d, arctic, and arid rock weathering are detectable. For example, com-
'iscn of the hydraulic geometry of perennial streams of hid and subhuai.d
'1=cs vi^h that of ephemeral st~eans of semiarid re^ions shows that in
=amt to perennial streams devth increases less ravid~y and gradient
-teases less rapidly in a downstream direction in epheoeral streams. This
~=ably is due to the high water loss in ephemeral stream chancels and to
e `-:crease is suspended sediment concentration in a downstream direction
