Geomorphological division of Slovakia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article gives an overview of the geomorphological division of Slovakia. It is ordered in a hierarchical form, belonging to the Alps-Himalaya System and to the sub-systems of the Carpathian Mountains and of the Pannonian Basin. These subsystems are subsequently divided into provinces, sub-provinces and areas.

Terminology (first Slovak, second English translation(s); see also: [1] (Slovak)):

  • oblasť = area
  • systém, sústava = system
  • (sub)provincia = (sub)province
  • nížina = lowland (0 - 200/300 m ASL)
  • vysočina = highland (above 200/300 m ASL)
  • rovina = flat (altitude difference app. 0 – 30 m)
  • pahorkatina = hills, downs (altitude difference app. 30 – 100/150 m)
  • vrchovina = upland, highland (altitude difference app. 100/150 – 300/310 m)
  • hornatina = highland(s) (altitude difference app. 300/310 – 600/640 m)
  • veľhornatina = mountains (altitude difference app. above 600/640 m)
  • planina = app: plain, plateau, tableland
  • plošina = app: plateau, tableland
  • zníženina, depresia = depression
  • panva = basin
  • kotlina = basin
  • úval = hollow, depression
  • brána = gate
  • tabuľa = plateau, tableland
  • podhorie = foothills
