Description:

The article deals with geodynamical phenomena of marginal parts of sandstone plateaus. The area of interest consists of several partial areas in the Bohemian Paradise natural reserve. These areas rise above terrain as relics of a once uniform sandstone plateau. The current relief developed mainly in the Pleistocene, when the Jizera River carved present day wide valley and the underlying soft clay rocks were uncovered. Thus favorable conditions were created for slow destruction of sandstone plateaus. Here, the slope movements occur up to the present days in the form of landsliding and slow block movements and their epiphenomena. Due to this continuing activity of the slope movements, human settlements and cultural monuments are endangered. Research in this area helps us to clarify the relation between slope movements and other factors, such as the presence of a significant tectonic failure in the vicinity or the influence of the water regime., Ingrid Forczek., and Obsahuje bibliografii
