Areas influenced dynamically by faults: geomorphic aspects

Abstract

Geomorphic features are discussed which are typical of the areas directly influenced by faults, and special features of the topography and relief-forming processes in particular. Each morphological-genetic type of faults is proved to correspond to a certain set of landforms and geomorphic processes. Those characteristics can be applied to mapping the areas dynamically influenced by faults which are both of practical use and theoretical significance.
