Классификация пучинного криогенного рельефа

Аннотация

The paper discusses the systematics of landforms, which come into being as result of frost heaving during the aggradatilonal phase of permafrost formation, a new multi-stage classification of the cryogenous relief is introduced taking into account time of the landforms formation and duration of their existence as well as their genetic and morphometric features and character of spatial distribution. The classification may be applied to regional subdivision and mapping of areas with cryogenous relief resulting from frost heaving.
