Editorial: Frontiers in marine geomorphometry
Marine geomorphometry is the science of quantitative terrain characterization applied to the seabed. Like many geospatial applications, techniques used for marine geomorphometry have been sourced from the terrestrial sciences. Through progress in the fields of seabed mapping, marine geomorphology, benthic habitat mapping, and marine ecology, scientists

Local variance for multi-scale analysis in geomorphometry.
Increasing availability of high resolution Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) is leading to a paradigm shift regarding scale issues in geomorphometry, prompting new solutions to cope with multi-scale analysis and detection of characteristic scales. We tested the suitability of the local variance (LV) method, originally developed for image analysis, for ...

Topography is the most important component of the geographical shell, one of the main elements of geosystems, and the framework of a landscape. geomorphometry is a science, the subject of which is modeling and analyzing the topography and the relationships between topography and other components of geosystems. Currently, the apparatus of geomorphometry

Geomorphometry is the science of quantitative terrain characterization and analysis, and has traditionally focused on the investigation of terrestrial and planetary landscapes. However, applications of marine geomorphometry have now moved beyond the simple adoption of techniques developed for terrestrial studies, driven by the rise in the acquisition ...

Young vertical movements in Qara-Chai basin (Markazi province) [PDF]
Identification of active geological structures can make a lot of help to identify seismic zones. There are several ways to study and identify structures. Accordingly, the horizontal and vertical movements can be detected in the area. In order to identify
