Going Deeper: Community E-resources for the "Short Book of Geomorphology"
Vignettes are:
- place-based, event-driven, or technique oriented.
- limited to 1000 words of text.
- accompanied by at least four photographs, diagrams, and/or maps, and equations.
To see a finished vignette, check out Paul Bierman's example Clearcutting and Erosion in New England - the Photographic and Stratigraphic Record (opens in a new window)
From the materials that you provide below, we will create a web page of the vignette you submit. Please complete all fields. You may also upload files to accompany your example. We will edit all vignettes for consistency and peer-review them for accuracy.
You retain all rights to your contributed work. By contributing your work to this web site, you give On the Cutting Edge a license for non-commercial distribution of the material, provided that we attribute the material to you. View our license policy for more details about this kind of Creative Commons license. You are responsible for referencing other people's work and for securing permission to use any copyrighted material within your contribution. If your submission contains illustrations from a publication of the Geological Society of America, you can expedite request for permission from them, and waive the fee, by e-mailing GSA Permissions and referring to On the Cutting Edge.
This form and the file uploads must be completed in a single session. Leaving the page erases the data. You cannot submit a partially completed form and return to it later. (Note: The links on this page open in a new window when clicked so they will not cause your work to be lost.) We strongly urge you to view the sample vignette before starting this form and to compose your own vignette in a word processor.
Please note that, after submission, our support staff must do some preparatory work to catalog and post these resources. We hope to make your contributions "live" within one to two weeks of your submission. Thank you in advance for making this contribution!
