This note introduces five recent projects of GIS-related geomorphological research in the USA. These projects relate to debris hazard research (Colorado State Univ.), soil classification (Univ. Wisconsin-Madison), paleoflood geomorphology (Univ. Arizona), channel geometry analysis (US Department of Agriculture), and geomorphological application of digital elevation maps (US Geological Survey). Emphasis is placed on the increasingly important contribution of GIS to geomorphology and related sciences.
