Surface Roughness in Geomorphometry: From Basic Metrics Toward a Coherent Framework

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Surface roughness (SR), most often computed from a digital elevation model (DEM), is a fundamental concept in geomorphometry, with significant applications across the earth sciences and ecology. However, its analysis remains fragmented, lacking a unified

Topographic Characteristics of Drainage Divides at the Mountain-Range Scale—A Review of DTM-Based Analytical Tools

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2022
We review DTM-based measures that can be applied to study the main drainage divides of mountain ranges. Both measures proposed in the past and new or modified approaches are presented, in order to show an ensemble of tools and jointly discuss their ...
