Морфогенетическая классификация овражно-балочных систем

Аннотация

Simple classification of elements of gully-balka (dry valley) systems is put forth. The classification combines ranked nomenclature with morphometric and dynamic characteristics. Six types of elements were distinguished, they are considered as generic. These elements may be separated by the morphology of their longitudinal and transverse sections. The scheme of gully-balka lithogenesis was compiled; it shows the trend in the development of gully-balka systems as well as acceleration and deceleration of this development.
