Physical geomorphometry

open access: yes, 2023
Physical geomorphometry is introduced as a specific subfield of geomorphometry, investigating the land surface in terms of the basic principles, practices, and concepts of physics. The interconnected system of geomorphometric energies gives meaning to the summation, difference and ratio of basic geomorphometric variables.
