Mountain ordering : a method for classifying mountains based on their morphometry

Mountain ordering : a method for classifying mountains based on their morphometry
Classification ; Fractal geometry ; Geomorphometry ; Hokkaido ; Japan ; Methodology ; Mountain ; Relief
A new method for defining the extent of a mountain, mountain ordering, is proposed, and is used to examine the morphological characteristics of a set of ordered mountains in northern Japan. As an example of geomorphometry based on the method
of mountain ordering, mountain order and the number, area and height for mountains of each order were determined for these mountains.

Vertical distance, releif energy and altitudinal limits as distinguishing features of high mountains

Vertical distance, releif energy and altitudinal limits as distinguishing features of high mountains
Altitude ; Classification ; High mountain ; Mountain ; Relief
Mountain constitute the Earth's third pole, because they hypsometrically repeat the climate zones as far as the Arctic within smallest space. For this reason, the vertical distance and relief energy are characteristic and distinguishing features
of any classification of mountains. But when taking such basic features into consideration, geomorphologists, glaciologists and geobotanists have to define mountain-typological threshold values in a new way. - (IfL)

Discussion of the European section of the Mountain Forum, a global network committed to sustainable development in mountain regions. The european section promotes sustainable development and management of Europe's mountains, facilitates exchange
between interested parties, and encourages education, public awareness, and technical assistance related to the first goal. In 1998, the European Mountain forum had over 460 members and local nodes in the Carpathians, the Caucasus, the Mediterranean
Mountains (including North Africa), and the Middle Mountains of Central and Western Europe. See WWW.europe.mtnforum.org. - (SLD)

Late Pleistocene glaciation of the Hulifang massif of Gongwang mountains in Yunnan Province

Late Pleistocene glaciation of the Hulifang massif of Gongwang mountains in Yunnan Province
China ; Dating ; Glacial features ; Glaciation ; Mountain ; Palaeogeography ; Pleistocene ; Stratigraphy ; Thermoluminescence ; Yunnan
Geomorphic mapping of the Hulifang Massif and the TL dating provides evidence for at least 4 distinct glaciations. Correlated with the other mountains in eastern China, these glacial advances in the Gongwang mountains just like the advances
in the western part such as Diancang mountains, Yulong mountains of Yunnan Province and the glacier series are more complete than the adjacent mid-latitude regions such as Taibai mountain and Taiwan mountains and are roughly representative of climate changes
