Abstract

The area of glacial deposits in northern Moravia represents a relief, the basie features of which developed in periglacial environment after the Saale Glaciation. Dells, dry valleys and broad river valleys are typical of the landscape. Some valley segments are connected to tectonic lines. In the valley development fluvio-thermal erosion processes played, indeed, a principal role. The report also presents a survey of the morphometry of asymmetrical valley segments on the basis of 1252 cross profiles with 33,718 numerical data, examined by computer.
