The Spanish Alta Ribargoza is located in the northern sector of the provinces of Huesca and Lerida, and includes the highest summit of the Pyrenean mountains (Pico de Aneto, 3404 m a.s.l.). The mapped sector measures approximate 700 km2. The basic source of information for the completion of the map was derived from the photointerpretation of two series of aerial photos (the 1981 “Pirineos Sur” ight, scale 1:30,000, black and white; and the 2006 PNOA ight, scale 1:5,000, colour), and field work. The map-legend includes 44 elements classified into six main sections, covering lithology and structure, processes and landforms of glacial, periglacial, nival, hillslope, karstic and uvial origin, and conventional symbols. The variety of the identi-ed processes and landforms demonstrates the geomorphological richness of this mid-latitude, high-mountain are... |
