The Umbria Region of Central Italy has a long history of mass movements. Landslides range from fast moving rock falls and debris flows, most abundant in mountain areas, to slow moving complex failures extending up to several hectares in the hilly part of the Region. Despite landslides occurring every year in Umbria, their impact remains largely unknown. We present an estimate of the impact of s...

The paper introduces GIS-based maps of the geomorphological and phytogeographical division Ukrainian Carpathians (a part Eastern Carpathian Mts.), which were developed for routine use in biogeography based on consolidation existing publications. map includes 57 OGUs (operational geographic units), – 18 lowest rank. Geomorphological units are supported with available synonyms, should help work d...

This work performs a geomorphological mapping procedure applied to the evolutionary analysis of the landscape, such that it groups different geomorphological units photointerpreted in large geomorphological domains. This allows greater utility and ease of identification and application in the different multidisciplinary studies of environmental geology and the evolution of the landscape. Geomor...

We propose a new approach, based on dynamic animation, to simulate geomorphological events such as erosion, sediment transportation and deposition. It relies on a generalized map representation of different geological layers. The topological evolution of these layers is driven by a set of displacements applied onto the vertices. The topological consistency of the model is guaranteed by a collis...

We present a large scale (1:10,000) geomorphological map of Favignana Island, in which landforms were recognized and genetically categorized based on analysis stereoscopic aerial photographs and...
