Latest Winner

Professor Paul Bishop

Although choosing the Wiley Award is a hugely difficult task, the committee agreed upon several papers which reflected the best of current geomorphological research, i.e. were innovative, thought-provoking and represented real advances in knowledge. Our final choice for the award for volume 32 (awarded 2008) is:

Bishop, P. 2007 Long-term landscape evolution: linking tectonics and surface processes. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms 32, 329-365.

The paper examines the last several decades of research in long-term landscape evolution, developed around a series of wide ranging themes. The review is thought-provoking and takes a future perspective looking at the emerging challenges for the research community.
