Abstract

In order to make a quantitative evaluation of the velocity of present-day exogenic geomorphic processes and the surface dynamics in the Mountain Crimea there was carried cut a three-stage (with a two-year interval) land stereoscopic photographic survey of 12 objects under different geological and geomorphological conditions. The article presents methods and the first results of analysis of the survey materials for the following two objects: a collapsed and crumbled slope of the Demerdzha mountain near the town of Alushta and a badland plot in the East Crimea. The rate of denudation and accumulation on separate plots of slopes was defined; the volume of demolished and accumulated material calculated. The rliability of the results obtained was evaluated and their representativeness proved. This method is economical, accurate, and documentary. It is recommended for the use in other mountain areas.
