The nominated World Heritage site includes three distinct geomorphologic units, each one corresponding to different geologic phases: (a) Pre-Cambrian metamorphic and magma gneiss outcrops forming round-shaped hills, which are the oldest and highest formations, and are located most distant from the sea. ❋ Unknown (2009)
There are three principal geomorphologic types in the ecoregion: alluvial plains of recent origin, low mountains formed by the relatively recent dissection of sediments from the Tertiary and Pleistocene periods, and the complexes in mountain areas consisting of mesozoic rocks. ❋ Unknown (2007)
The extreme climate and varied geomorphologic conditions have assisted, nevertheless, to develop a significant diversity of landscapes and habitats adapted to drought. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The ecoregion contains a number of geomorphologic features with different origins: ❋ Unknown (2008)
In the continental domain of Venezuela, mangroves are confined to two geomorphologic units: coastal lagoons and alluvial plains. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The site is mainly affected by geomorphologic factors, particularly cliff erosion. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The major geomorphologic feature is the unusual ridged fields of De Geer (‘washboard’) moraines, especially in Core Area A, formed by the melting of the continental ice sheet. ❋ Unknown (2008)
It includes two main geomorphologic regions: the Coastal Belt and the Transition Zone. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The historical alternation between wetter and drier periods, and their accompanying geomorphologic processes have led to the unique morphologic structure and steep sided valleys of the Tassili-n-Ajjer. ❋ Unknown (2008)
This system, formed between the Tertiary and Lower Upper Quaternary, is the main geomorphologic feature of this region. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The park comprises three geomorphologic zones: the volcanic High Andes, eastern foothills and alluvial fans. ❋ Unknown (2008)
It can take weeks to months for water to move through surface drainage networks depending upon the complexity of the geomorphologic network. ❋ Unknown (2007)
The regeneration of various tree species is closely tied to subtle changes in elevation, drainage, and inundation periods, which are in turn the result of larger-scale geomorphologic processes. ❋ Unknown (2007)
However, the basin itself is virtually sterile of archaeological finds, as was hinted at already by the corings our geomorphologic team carried out here. ❋ Unknown (2003)
I've never worked with seismometers myself and don't have the expertise to comment on the details of their application to measuring geomorphologic noise. ❋ Brian Romans (2011)
Field work, remote-sensing, geomorphologic analyses, and forward modeling were integrated to develop a structural model for the evolution of the Gar Basin that may be valuable in augmenting our understanding of the development of double releasing-bend basins along strike-slip systems. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Travelling around, the local as well as the foreign visitor - traveller has the opportunity to get to know and admire a place with several natural beauties, in an alternating geomorphologic landscape and to walk on the footprints of the human presence for thousands of years. ❋ Unknown (2010)
New findings will also include modeling of regional evapotranspiration rates and geomorphologic water transport. ❋ Unknown (2010)
According to Romania, Serpents 'Island qualifies as a "rock" because: it is a rocky formation in the geomorphologic sense; ❋ Unknown (2009)
