Relations between the morphometric characteristics of the relief and the landslides in the Cubolta Hydrographic Basin. Republic of Moldova

: Among the processes that predominate on the territory of the Cubolta river basin are the landslides, which affect about 2071.86 ha of the entire surface of the basin. Because landslides occur as a result of factors that contribute to their onset, for example, the morphology and morphometry of the relief, an attempt was made to highlight the relationship between the morphometric elements of the relief and the landslide process. Due to the usefulness of the calculation functions of the ArcGIS software, it was possible to represent graphically the relationship of the morphometric parameters and the landslides existing on the researched territory.
