Some Considerations on Climatic Geomorphology of the Romanian Territory

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2009
The main issues about relation between climate and relief in the Romanian geomorphological literature follow three directions of research: the description of Pleistocene glacial and Pleistocene-Holocene periglacial landforms in the Carpathians; the ...

Climatic Zonality of Periglacial Landforms in Mountain Areas [PDF]

open access: yesARCTIC, 1994
The alpine periglacial areas of the world can be divided into three distinctive landscape types dominated by one of the following: active rock glaciers, active block streams, or gelifluction landforms. These also correspond to distinct climates, the active rock glaciers occurring under cold, humid conditions; the active block streams in cold, dry ...
