Auteurs :

Description :
The climate of an orographically structured area highly depends on the terrain properties. An important factor of regional climatic patterns is, besides land use, the relief forming valleys and mountains which are represented by its parameters: shapoe, elevation and orientation. The derivation of these parameters from a digital terrain model and the application to the production of digital climatological maps, with special regard to the new fog map of Bavaria, are presented and discussed. - (L'A.).
