1. 1. The role of tectonics, structures and etch processes for the present relief in glaciated Precambrian besement rocks of SW Sweden

   Författare :Magnus Johansson; Karlstads universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Landforms; morphotectonics; palaeosurfaces; GIS; digital elevation data; granite; deep weathering; saprolites; etchsurface; basins; structures; glacial reshaping; roche moutonnée; Naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

   Sammanfattning : In high latitudes, landscapes of low relief are known to contain residues of pre-glacial deep weathering, or etching, which testify to limited modification of the pre-glacial relief by the Pleistocene ice sheets. In this thesis landforms in all scales are classified according to their process of formation. LÄS MER

3. 2. Terrain Modelling with GIS for Tectonic Geomorphology : Numerical Methods and Applications

   Författare :Gyözö Jordan; Ulf Qvarfort; Tsehaie Woldai; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental technology; digital elevation model; digital terrain modelling; GIS; morphometry; tectonic geomorphology; Miljöteknik; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Analysis of digital elevation models (DEMs) by means of geomorphometry provides means of recognising fractures and characterising the morphotectonics of an area in a quantitative way. The objective of the thesis is to develop numerical methods and a consistent GIS methodology for tectonic geomorphology and apply it to test sites. LÄS MER
