The main features and the evolution of the apical part of the River Ombrone delta have been analysed from a morphological and sedimentological viewpoint, using cartographic data, aerial photographs and field evidence. The evolution occurred during
The paper contains an assessment of the evolution of relief under influence of man in the Wierzbica region between the rivers I. .anka and radomka, as based on the author's local investigations (geomorphological mapping and the updating of existing
cartographic elaborations). The forms of anthropogenic relief were classified. Areas of anthropogenic transformation to relief due to the exploitation of raw materials were assessed. Regions, and stages to anthropogenic changes to relief connected with dominant

Perspectives in coastal geomorphology of Western Crete, Greece
This paper studies coastal evolution in the Gulf of Valencia in historical times through the analysis of archeological, documental, cartographic and photographic data. Two sectors with a different evolution tendency have been identified: between
of cartographic materials. The comparison of the conclusions drawn from these data allowed to determine that the general trend of evolution of this kind of anthropogenic landforms is growing and their internal structure is changing. This research is an example

The first part of this paper gives the results of a study of the temporal dimensions of mass movements which was carried out by the European Centre for Geomorphological Risks in 1993. The time terminoloy was often inaccurate or incomplete, so
the A. has tried to clarify concepts such as the state and mode of activity, dormancy, the return time and the age of a movement. The second part sets out a few principles which may be helpful in applying these cartographic concepts in maps of various scales

La dépression Gallocanta, considérée traditionnellement comme une fosse néotectonique, a été réinterprétée comme un poljé karstique. Quatre surfaces de corrosion aplanies et en escalier au-dessus du fond de poljé ont été cartographiées, permettant
The method of geomorphological mapping was adopted in many European and non-European countries, especially over the 1956-1986 period. Yet, mapping methods, especially of compilation of detailed geomorphological maps, still need to be made uniform
. Such maps are intended to determine the development of geomorphology and, simultaneously, are of considerable value for rational economic planning purposes.

In this review, the A. examines the important developments in tectonic geomorphology at a wide range of spatial and temporal scales and the growing interest of geologists in geomorphology in general, and tectonic geomorphology in particular
Coastal geomorphology in The geomorphology of Southern Africa.
The littoral zone is one of the most complex geomorphic systems subject to many geomorphological factors, including waves, sediment supply, climate sea levels and tectonics.
On the problem of geomorphological prediction in Geomorphological models. Theoretical and empirical aspects.
A new approach to forecasting is introduced, based on the concept of process development, i.e. a functional geomorphological forecast which presents in essence a search and analysis of combinations of geographic situations and their evaluation

A complex geomorphological analysis of the relief of Stožecká hornatina Mts (Šumava). The structural relief features and a high number of cryogenous forms give to that territory an original geomorphological character, which is only seldom
