Abstract

Morphometric analysis is the quantification of shapes, which makes irregular shapes found in nature analyzable and comparable. Cave morphometry has been used for the genetic classification of caves, the digital reconstruction of their conduits, the decoding of their paleoenvironment, and other research purposes. Ratios and indices that have been derived from Euclidean geometry and application of fractal geometry onto karst features and topological parameters are the basic methodologies that have been used for shape quantification. This paper reviews the literature that focuses on methodologies used for morphometric analyses and the applications that these methodologies have found.

洞穴形态计量分析:综述
形态分析是对形状的量化,它使自然界中的不规则形状变得可以分析和比较。洞穴形态计量学已被用于洞穴基因分类、洞穴导管的数字重建、洞穴古环境解码以及其他研究目的。从欧几里得几何中得出的比率和指数,以及将分形几何应用于岩溶特征和拓扑参数,都是用于形态量化的基本方法。本文回顾了有关形态计量分析方法及其应用的文献。
