Quantitative Revolution in Geomorphology and Challenges and Effect of Cycle of Erosion

This paper focuses on the factors that led to the kick-starting of cycle of erosion and its many stages. It also observes the factors responsible for its relevance and effects today, which also led to the decline of Davisian Model that described it earlier. The methodology adopted for the study was mainly primary data observed in some areas around the buffer zones of Sahel/Sudan Savannah. Few recommendations were offered on why should the study of Aeolian and fluvial geomorphology must persist.

Keywords: Revolution, Geomorphology, Davis Model, (Effects of Cycle of) Erosion.
