Геоморфология острова Пинос

Аннотация

The article presents a tentative generalization of data on geomorphology of the Pinos Island, results of the authors observations included. The island topography is subdivided into morphogenetic types as follows: denudational fluvial, karstic and thalassogenic ones. The denudational relief is represented by a surface of denudational planation, which is spread over the main part of the Northern Pinos at 10-12 up to 60-70 meters a. s. l. Fluvial relief is represented .by numerous river valleys forming a radial drainage pattern. Karstic forms are developed on limestones of Southern Pinos and on marble ridges of Northern Pinos. Thalassogenic forms of relief include coastal forms and sea terraces at 2,5-6 and 10-12 meters a. s. 1. There was not established any evidences of higher sea level.
