This study focuses on the morphotectonics of Central High Atlas in Morocco through analysis morphotectonic indices recorded by topography, drainage networks, and longitudinal stream profiles. The methods used this work were length-gradient index (SLI), normalized steepness index, area-altitude relations (hypsometric curves), mountain front sinuosity, basin shape ratio, asymmetry factor. aim is ...

Theoretical assumptions, research methodologies and results applications of innovative geological and geomorphological mapping for landslide hazard evaluation in the alpine environment are presented in the paper. Case studies from the Italian NW-Alps highlight the role of Geomatics techniques in enhancing the accuracy of multitemporal reconstructions of geomorphic processes and landforms. Aeria...

Active deformation in Alborz range is due to N-S convergence between Arabia and Eurasia. This paper provides geomorphic traces of regional deformation in NW Iran in order to characterize active faulting on major faults. Soltanieh and North Zanjan fault systems are involved in convergence boundary extent between South Caspian Basin and Central Iran. Soltanieh and North Zanjan faults are major re...
