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

Quantitative studies of the morphology of the south Poland using Relief Index (RI)
Open Geosciences, 2017 The aim of this study was to introduce a new morphometric index named Relief Index (RI). RI is the ratio of the total length of the contour lines and the surface area at which they occur.

Automated unsupervised geomorphometric classification of earth surface for landslide susceptibility assessment [PDF]
, 2008 The aim of this work is to define an automated method of terrain classification in order to evaluate the correlation degree between topographic forms of the analyzed territory and registered landslide phenomena with a Landslide Inventory and DEMs as ...

From coastal geomorphometry to virtual environments
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Communicating environmental change and mitigation scenarios to stakeholders and decision-makers can be challenging. Immersive environments offer an innovative approach for knowledge transfer, allowing science-based scenarios to be discussed interactively.

Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Moose showed strikingly similar patterns of habitat selection before and after widespread forest disturbance following an infestation of bark beetles. Our findings indicate that beetle‐kill does not appreciably alter habitat quality for moose and highlight the importance of riparian areas in sustaining moose as they contend with changing forests ...

Development of virtual morphometric globes using Blender
, 2015 Virtual globes - programs implementing interactive three-dimensional (3D) models of planets - are increasingly used in geosciences. Global morphometric models can be useful for tectonic and planetary studies.

Surface fitting in geomorphology - examples for regular-shaped volcanic landforms [PDF]
, 2014 In nature, several types of landforms have simple shapes: as they evolve they tend to take on an ideal, simple geometric form such as a cone, an ellipsoid or a paraboloid. Volcanic landforms are possibly the best examples of this ?ideal?

Assessing multifunctional mountain landscape in an Eastern European framework
Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.The research introduces the Biocultural Resilience Index (BRI), a novel tool for assessing multifunctional landscape sustainability. By integrating biological, cultural, and socio‐economic indicators, the BRI identifies vulnerable areas and informs strategies for sustainable management.
