Mapování svahových deformací ve východní části Vsetínských vrch

Abstract

Detailed geomorphologic mapping of the selected part of Vsetínské vrchy Hills was aimed to identify recent as well as relict forms of slope deformations. The slope deformations were classified according their type and activity. Following types were identified during field investigation: landslides and earth flows, debris flows and complex slope deformations. General as well as detailed rules for classification of individual slope deformations into these classes are discussed. Activity of the slope deformations was determined according their morphological features and vegetation cover. Forms which may be misinterpreted as slope deformations are listed and described. These include mostly man made features - old roads, agricultural terraces and old queries. Natural forms are represented by blow downs of trees. Specific rules for field mapping of man made features are stated.
