Geomorphology of a recently deglaciated high mountain area in Eastern Anatolia (Turkey)
We present a geomorphological map of the Cilo Mountain range located in southeast Turkey that illustrates the recent evolution of the second-most glacierized area of Turkey. The map was produced by the manual delineating of landforms from highresolution satellite imagery (Pleiades and Google Earth T...
