Geomorphological mapping and landforms characterization of a high valley environment in the Chilean Andes
(2020)
Despite the wide diversity of landforms, there are only a few geomorphological maps of the Chilean Central Andes. In this study, we present a detailed geomorphological map on a 1:50.000 scale for the Diguillín Valley (Ñuble ...

Mapping Mountain Landforms and Its Dynamics: Study Cases in Tropical Environments
(2022)
High mountain areas are critical for water security and natural hazard dynamics, as well
as glacier and ecosystem conservation in a warming world. We present a brief account of the
methodological steps for geomorphological ...
Geomorphological of a portion of the Andes and Pre-Andes of San Juan, Argentina
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013-05)
A detailed geomorphological map is presented for a portion of a poorly investigatedmountainous region of the Dry Frontal Andes and Western Pre-Andes of San Juan provincearound 30S latitude. This map shows the presence and ...
Development of a Landforms Model for Puerto Rico and its Application for Land Cover Change Analysis

Combining object-based image analysis with topographic data for landform mapping: a case study in the semi-arid Chaco ecosystem, Argentina
(MDPI, 2019-03)
This paper presents an object-based approach to mapping a set of landforms located in the fluvio-eolian plain of Rio Dulce and alluvial plain of Rio Salado (Dry Chaco, Argentina), with two Landsat 8 images collected in ...
Improving the discrimination of vegetation and landform patterns in sandy rangelands: A synergistic approach
(Taylor & Francis, 2009-05)
Soil erosion is a key factor in land degradation processes in the sandy rangelands of the Peninsula Valdes of Patagonia, Argentina. Mapping landform and vegetation patterns is important for improving prediction, monitoring ...
Proglacial landform assemblage in a rapidly retreating cirque glacier due to temperature increase since 1970, Fuegian Andes, Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2021-10)
The general trend of glacial retreat since the Little Ice Age has shown an acceleration during the last decades in Southern Argentine and Chilean Patagonia. The Fuegian Andes climatic records report an irregular mean annual ...
An inventory of cryospheric landforms in the arid diagonal of South America (high Central Andes, Atacama region, Chile)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-05)
An integral, glacial and periglacial, inventory of the cryosphere in the Atacama region in Chile was carried out to estimate the amount of frozen water reserves in this arid to hyper-arid region. The inventory was carried ...
Semiarid geomorphology: A methodological proposal for cartographic representation and interpretation of landforms on a detailed scaleGeomorfologia do semiárido: proposta metodológica de representação cartográfica e interpretação do relevo em escala de detalhe
(2021-01-01)
The geomorphological cartography at a scale of detail in the Brazilian semiarid presents several aspects to be considered, in order to consistently subsidize geomorphological research in local contexts. In this paper, we ...
