The aim of AA’ investigations was to explore the evolution of loess platform and the landforms on Susak Island in Kvarner Bay, North Adriatic basin. Special emphasis was put on the role of tectonic movements in the landscape evolution of the island
. Landforms were displayed on geomorphological maps and their evolution was explained in details. The most characteristic landforms on Susak Island are as follows : partly exhumed landforms of the ancient terrain (scarps, limestone cliffs) emerging from loess
sediments or becoming unburied by abrasion; special loess landforms formed on denudation-accumulation relief. AA. also highlighted the role of sand dune cave levels situated above the surface and under the sea level in indicating hiatus of paleosoil series
Photogeological study of Cenozoic landformevolution in the Cooktown area, north Queensland, Australia
The present study describes a number of significant photogeological observations in the Cooktown area, and attempts to link these into a morphotectonic model of Cenozoic landformevolution in the region. This model supports an earlier hypothesis
Preglacial weathering and landformevolution in Fennoscandia
The historical approach to geomorphology seems to be useful in the study of bedrock geomorphology on the Fennoscandian craton. A field meeting on the theme preglacial weathering and landformevolution was held in southern Sweden, May 16-20, 1988
involved in investigating landformevolution in Australasia. This book will be of interest to geologists, geomorphologists and to any earth scientist concerned to understand how our present landscape has evolved.
Evolution of the Lower Gangetic Plains landforms and soils in West Bengal, India
-forming processes in the area; 3) broad elucidation of the roles of sea level changes and neotectonics on the evolution of landforms and soils.
The objectives of this study were : 1) identification and mapping of different landforms and soil-geomorphic units in the Lower Gangetic Plains of West bengal, and construction of a soil chrono-association for the area; 2) deciphering the major soil

In this paper, the authors introduce a possible method for the conservation evaluation of geomorphological landforms. They elabored a scoring system for the determination of the value of typefiedness, which is the first step of the conservation
evaluation. The method of determining the value of typifiedness is presented on the example of cryoplanational landforms in the Tokaj Mountains. - (ZK)

This article describes Slovenia's landform units, their basic morphometric indicators and the method of their determination using digital elevation model and geographic information system. In Slovenia 195 individual landform units and 8 landform
Present biogeomorphic knowledge supports the hypothesis that abiotic-biotic feedbacks create characteristic modulated patterns of earth surface landforms, adjusting according to biological evolution in the long term and to ecological succession
in the short term. In this context, natural selection of organisms and ecological successions are considered to have the potential, in some cases, for extension to the physical world, including earth surface landforms. The extended evolutionary perspective
