Abstract
Please click here to download the map associated with this article. A detailed geomorphological map on a 1:25,000 scale is presented for a mid-height mountain area in the Cantabrian Range: the Juan Robre and Jana Ridge. This ridge is characterized by the conservation of relict periglacial landforms, active morphodynamics linked to fluvial, torrential and hillslope processes, and karstic landforms with significant impact on the landscape. The mapped sector measures 51.4 km. The cartographic system used is the RCP 77 of the French CNRS combined with self-devised adaptations. The map legend includes 57 elements divided into eight sections: lithology, tectonics and structural landforms, karstic landforms, morphologies in other rocks, fluvial and torrential landforms, periglacial landforms, hillslope landforms, and anthropogenic landforms. The variety of processes and landforms identified demonstrates that geomorphological cartography is an efficient land management tool.
