Description :
The Curvature Carpathians (between the Trotus and Dâmbovita river valleys) are the most complex sector of the Subcarpathians. They developed in the Carpathian foreland depression during the Miocene and Pliocene. This paper deals with the various influences on present-day slope evolution : rocks, geological structure, slope parameters, drainage and human pressure. A detailed mapping of the area and map analyses have proven that the diversity of slope evolution is reflected by morphodynamics as well as by variation in land use.
