Geomorphological mapping plays an essential role in understanding Earth surface
processes, geochronology, natural resources, natural hazards and landscape evolution. It …

Starting from a concept of the land surface, its definition and subdivision from Digital
Elevation Models (DEMs) is considered. High-resolution DEMs from active remote sensing …

Mapping of landforms is probably as old as the making of maps. Mountain ranges,
volcanoes and plains all appear on early representations of land. Often the mountains were …

The coastal landforms along the south west coast of Kanyakumari have undergone
remarkable change in terms of shape and disposition due to both natural and anthropogenic …

Coastal geomorphic classification identifying the type of depositional environment, is an
important indicator for coastal state and vulnerability, eg, beach, bedrock and wetland (tidal …

The Mediterranean basin is an important area of the Earth for studying the interplay between
geodynamic processes and landscape evolution affected by tectonic, glacio-hydro-isostatic …

In the last decades, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) allowed the detailed analysis of
land surface, whereas the development in Remote Sensing (RS) offered increasingly …

Geodiversity, as diversity of the abiotic environment, includes terrain ruggedness (or
roughness), which is one of the essential parts of geodiversity evaluation. The terrain …

Glaciokarst is a landscape which combines karst features and hydrology as well as inherited
glacial features. It is a result of glaciation upon a karst geomorphological system. The …

The article presents a simple quantitative model for geodiversity evaluation, which merges
spatial relationship of geodiversity elements with terrain data. The model is partially …
