Morphometric analysis of mountain topography for purposes of recreation (a case study of the Krasnaya Polyana region)
Abstract
The region of the upper and middle reaches of the Mzymta River (near the Krasnaya Polyana) is characterized using classical morphometric approach. The region is subdivided on the basis of engineering-geomorphological characteristics, using an integral index of the geodynamic activity which combines information on horizontal and vertical dissection of topography, slope steepness and exposure.
