[MTT41-P07] Landslide Geomorphological Map of the Northern Hida Mountains, Japan

Keywords:Geomorphological map, Landslide topography, Glacial topography, Geomorphological development, The Northern Hida Mountains

The northern Hida Mountains located in central Japan consist of high-relief mountain ranges. A previous study has reported the distribution of the glacial topography and explained the landform development caused by glaciers in this region. In 2008, we published the Landslide Geomorphological Map of the Northern Hida Mountains. This map revealed the landslide distributions and glaciated topographies. Our poster shows this map and explains the methods and criteria for geomorphological mapping, as well as the development and characteristics of landslide distribution.
