Abstract
G.H. Dury was one of the outstanding figures in postwar geography and geomorphology. Although known chiefly for his research into the impact of climatic change on streams, he made important contributions to the study of pediments, of deep‐weathering, and of climatic extremes and fluctuations. He also did innovative work in historical and regional geography, and contributed greatly to geographical education in both universities and high schools. Dury played a central role in the transformation of the discipline and continued to challenge it after his retirement.
