Geomorphological Field Mapping
2011Abstract This chapter discusses the principles and applications of geomorphological field mapping, using areas of upland terrain for example, where the presence of well-defined landforms either demonstrates ongoing geomorphic activity associated with specific process–response systems or relates to the former operation of cold climate processes ...

Geomorphological Mapping (Case Studies)
2009The Oinois (or Charadros) River is located in northeast Attica (Greece). The total main riverbed length is about 31Km, while the drainage basin covers an area of 177,2Km2. It is bounded to the west by the ridge of Mt. Parnitha and to the south by Mt. Pentelikon.

THE HYPSOMETRIC MAP AS A SPECIAL GEOMORPHOLOGICAL MAP
Mapping Sciences and Remote Sensing, 1992In a critique of maps used for geomorphological research (too cluttered to be read effectively, too general in respect to contour positioning), the author describes: (a) a methodology whereby conventional hypsometric maps can be corrected through the use of air photos, (b) outlines principles for symbol generalization and selection whereby the amount ...

1984
There has never been a greater need for effective communication between the scientific community and society than that which currently exists. The competent scientist must be capable of sharing highly technical and often complex information with decision makers whose backgrounds are most often nonscientific.

Future Developments of Geomorphological Mapping
2011Publisher Summary The formalization of geomorphological mapping as a central platform for recording landform data cemented its role as a key organizational framework for the study of landforms, their history, materials and the processes associated with them.

The Modern Geomorphological Map
2013Classical geomorphological maps are representations of the spatial distribution of landforms, materials and of the processes responsible for their formation, in a single paper map. They contain a wealth of information that is generally documented with the aid of symbol and color legends.

LARGE-SCALE GEOMORPHOLOGICAL MAPPING
Mapping Sciences and Remote Sensing, 1987This paper, presented at a scientific conference convened on the 100th birthday of Professor I. S. Shchukin, founder and former head of the Geomorphology Department at Moscow University, traces the development of large-scale geomorphological mapping there.

Methods in geomorphology: mapping glacial features
2013The process of mapping glacial geomorphological features is broken down into its component elements and each is described. Two types of glacial geomorphological maps are defined and the identification of glacial features discussed. The basic steps to producing a glacial geomorphological map are detailed, including production of a base map and field ...
