GEOMORPHOLOGIC METHODS FOR ESTIMATING THE FLOOD HAZARDS IN MOUNTAIN CATCHMENTS

This article presents the possibilities for implementation of the geomorphologicmethods in estimation of the morphometric characteristics and relief dismembermentin flood hazard analysis for the Malki Iskar and Suha Reka rivercatchment above the town of Etropole. The results shown in the maps of the verticaland horizontal relief dismemberment in GIS exhibit a very high degree of conformitybetween the torrential river sections and the regions with high values ofhorizontal and/or vertical relief dismemberment
