of geomorphological investigation. However, the process of this analysis itself is in fact still unclear, even though geomorphologists use it very often. Therefore, a firm concept of geomorphological analysis has been postulated according to a proposal published by Urbánek (2000a, b) and applied to geomorphological research of previously glaciated areas in the Šumava Mts. (the Czech Republic). ...

Definition Geomorphology is the science that studies the origin and development of landforms and how those landforms combine to form landscapes. Landforms are shaped by geomorphological processes, many of which involve the weathering, erosion, transportation, and deposition of surface materials (rock, sediment) by gravity, ice, wind, or water. Both erosional and depositional landforms can be id...

The amount of water on earth is the same and only the distribution and the reallocation of water forms are altered in both time and space. To improve the rainwater harvesting a better understanding of the hydrological cycle is mandatory. Clouds are major component of the hydrological cycle; therefore, clouds distribution is the keystone of better rainwater harvesting. Remote sensing technology ...

Terrain surfaces conserve human activities in terms of textures and structures. The objective of geomorphological filters is to distinguish between anthropogenically undisturbed and disturbed surfaces. Filters applied over high-resolution DTM show a clear anthropogenic character of contour lines and channels. Based on methodology of geomorphometry and geo-statistics a series of analyses functio...

because of the presence of special properties in semi arid catchment, these areas are suitable for drought events. the responses of these areas to drought events are in the form of the disappearance of plant cover on surfaces slopes, intensive erosion or landslide occurrence on side of rivers’ course. azarshahr catchment (situated in 37ëš 36′ to 37ëš 49′ n and 44ëš 20′ to 45ëš 49′ e) ...
