CENOZOIC RELIEF EVOLUTION IN THE MORAVIAN-SILESIAN CARPATHIANS (CZECH REPUBLIC): AN ATTEMPT OF SYNTHESIS
https://doi.org/10.15356/0435-4281-2012-3-76-83
Abstract
Moravian-Silesian Carpathians are the small westernmost member of the Western Carpathians in the southeastern part of the Czech Republic with interesting very young and sensitive relief. The author summarizes in his paper the main phases of relief development of the Moravian-Silesian Carpathians and evaluates impacts of neotectonic, gravitational tectonic, and climatic changes in Tertiary and Quaternary Periods. According to the author’s opinion the main period of the present-day relief formation has been the Pliocene erosion megaphase.
