Abstract

Through its morphometric characteristics, the relief greatly affects the spatial differentiation of the full range of processes, either natural or anthropogenic. Physical and morphometric conditions of a mountain range Mala Fatra predetermine it for the establishment and support of a wide range of morphodynamic processes. The thesis deals with statistical and spatial relief analysis of a selected part of Mala Fatra in order to provide comprehensive information on its characteristics, focusing on selected morphometric parameters and current processes of relief formation that shape this mountain range. The article provides information on the physical and geographical measurements and contains a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics and spatial differentiation of typical for this area morphodynamic processes in the context of the impact of morphometric parameters of relief on their spatial distribution. The article is based on theoretical knowledge of statistical and spatial analysis and on the results of field research. Special consideration is given to the detailed analysis of parts of the Vrátna (valley). The parts of the article are mapping outlets and photo documentation.

Keywords: morphometric analysis, morphodynamic processes, Mountain range Malá Fatra, Vrátna dolina valley
