В настоящем исследовании объектом анализа является исключительно ЦМР в виде регулярной сети. Благодаря своим свойствам, GRID часто используется для определения гидрологических особенностей исследуемой поверхности. Так, уклон... more
While high-resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM) datasets have been captured through space-borne imagery to map badland landscapes at fine scales, these remain essentially top-down views of the surface and cannot adequately capture the... more
Tafoni and gnamma are cavernous weathering phenomena that have been extensively surveyed, discussed, and studied. From delicate, polygonal cells (2–4 mm) to huge circular pits (30 mþ), they develop in a variety of rock substrates,... more
Alluvial fan development in Alpine areas is often affected by catastrophic sedimentary processes associated with extreme floods events, causing serious risks for people living on the fans. Hazard assessment in these areas depends on... more
The study includes a review of theoretical and methodological basis of current castellology and shows on the specific examples how it is essential to abandon the traditional approach and build a new theoretical model involving the role of... more
ABSTRAK Daerah Penelitian terletak di daerah Bili-bili dan sekitanya. Terletak di Kabupaten Gowa, Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan. Maksud dari pembuatan paper ini adalah untuk mengetahui morfometri kemiringan lereng Daerah Dam Bili-bili dan... more
La nivel mondial, dinamica actuală a reliefului este privită ca o problemă de prim ordin în gestionarea judicioasă a resurselor mediului natural şi în special a reliefului, ca suport al activităţii umane. Ca urmare a creşterii de la an la... more
По спутниковым данным SRTM 3 впервые для бассейна р. Кубани выполнены расчеты и картографированы ключевые морфометрические показатели земной поверхности – уклон, экспозиция, а также фрактальная размерность.... more
This chapter presents place of geomorphometry in contemporary geomorphology. The focus is on discussing digital elevation models (DEMs) that are the primary data source for the analysis. One has described the genesis and definition, main... more
La cuenca alta del río General se localiza en el centro-sur de Costa Rica, a 80 km al SE de San José. Esta región está sujeta a una declaratoria oficial por parte de la Comisión Nacional de Prevención de Riesgos y Atención de Emergencias... more
Doğal ve beşeri ortamların yoğun bir şekilde etkileşim halinde olduğu ve karmaşık sistemler meydana getirdiği günümüz koşullarında, bu unsurların ilişkisinin incelenmesi birçok sorunun çözümünde önemli rol oynamakta ve kullanılabilir... more
Complex and rugged topography induces large variations in erosion and sediment delivery in the headwaters of alpine catchments. An effective connection of hillslopes with the channel network results in highly efficient sediment transfer... more
Abstract: Soil erosion is a key environmental issue in the geologically sensitive zone of the lower Himalaya. Watershed as a hydrological unit plays an important role in the conservation of such a perishable resource. Morphometric... more
Cratonic areas experience complex process-response changes due to their operative endogenic and exogenic forces varying in intensity and spatiality over long timescales. Unlike zones of active deformation, the surface expression of the... more
The archaeological research of elite seats should not be limited only to field activities; with available analytical tools, it is also possible to build digital corpora and to conduct their systematic evaluation. The compilation of an... more
ÖZET Son yıllarda önemi artan morfometrik çalışmalar yani yüzeyin şekillenmesi ve etkili olan nedenlerin belirlenmesi, coğrafyanın bilim dallarından jeomorfolojinin içerisinde önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Bu anlamda farklı araştırmacılar... more
Beaver (Castor sp.) can change the riverine environment through dam-building and other activities. The European beaver (Castor fiber) was extirpated in Poland by the nineteenth century, but populations are again present as a result of... more
Geomorphological elements developed and changed by the influence of many dynamic processes and factors have begun to gain different dimensions and appearances under the influence of human activities. The fact that humanity has become a... more
The recent and growing development and availability of unmanned aerial vehicles/systems (UAV, UAS, or "drones") in volcanology has promoted a significant advance in volcanic surveillance of active volcanoes and in the characterization of... more
Archaeological topography identification from high-resolution DEMs (Digital Elevation Models) is a current method that is used with high success in archaeological prospecting of wide areas. I present a methodology through which burial... more
Морфометрическое описание земной поверхности выполняется посредством основных параметров – высоты, наклона, ориентации, кривизны. В сущности, данные параметры представляют собой взаимодополняющие (комплементарные) и вытекающие... more
The aim of this study was to introduce a new morphometric index named Relief Index (RI). RI is the ratio of the total length of the contour lines and the surface area at which they occur. This easily calculated index provides an objective... more
In this paper, quantitative geomorphological features (slope inclinations, profile and planar curvature) of mountain rims of Duvanjsko polje were analyzed. Recent shape of this area is a consequence of series of natural and social impacts... more
Entre otros diversos aspectos, el evento de aludes torrenciales de Diciembre de 1999 evidenció a partir de los volúmenes de sedimentos depositados por éstos y la severidad de los daños causados, con diferencias notorias entre distintos... more
landform-features of the Bari Metropolitan Area ("Città Metropolitana di Bari", Apulia, Southern Italy). The study is focused on the coastal sector of the "Murge Basse" area. This latter is characterized by a low-relief carbonate... more
The paper presents the new results of detailed geomorphometric analyses of geomorphic features, resulting from young-Cenozoic tectonic activity in the NW part of the Milešovské středohoří volcanic range (SW part of the České středohoří... more
Landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including the physical elements of landforms such as (ice-capped) mountains, hills, water bodies such as rivers, lakes, ponds and the sea, living elements of land cover... more
In this paper we report the results of an experiment with automated landform delineation and classification from digital elevation models (DEMs) using object-based image analysis (OBIA). Archaeologists rely on accurate and detailed... more
Predmet istraživanja rada je reljefna izoliranost, morfometrijska funkcija određena razlikom u nadmorskoj visini vrha i sedla koje taj vrh odvaja od drugoga, višega vrha. Temeljem neparametrijskih testova izrađena je (geo)statistička... more
Landslides are geomorphologic and hydrologic phenomena, which produce a certain morphology, influenced by the slide/flow of the material downslope. Usually the distance of the movement of the material is greater than the width of the... more
The Moldavian platform (Romania) is dominated by a repetitive pattern of structural landforms, controlled by the monoclinal structure of the sedimentary cover. A supervised landform classification schema, is applied to an SRTM digital... more
Assessing large scale topography and surface elevation changes usually requires temporal remote sensing and aerial photogrammetrically-based data. Usually, very high resolution (VHR) elevation data, for instance, digital surface models... more
