Problemas de geomorfología en Colombia
The large geomorphological zones of Colombia are defined partly by the climatic levels rising from the equatorial environment and partly by the relief energy; subdivisions of not less importance are determined either by the regional humidity or dryness. Thus the following elements can be distinguish...

The large geomorphological zones of Colombia are defined partly by the climatic levels rising from the equatorial environment and partly by the relief energy; subdivisions of not less importance are determined either by the regional humidity or dryness. Thus the following elements can be distinguished; a glacial level, reaching down to 3000 m. during the recent Quaternary; a periglacial fringe, and a belt of paramos which gas replaced the previous ice-cap; the great forested andine slopes, the valleys and interior dry basins, where the morphogenesis influenced by the steepness of the slopes, corresponds respectively to solifluxion and to water runoff and lastly the hot low-lands which are either wooded or relatively dry and often affected by outside phenomenons. It seems that the principal morphogenetic crisis of the Quaternary is due to drier climates and have affected mostly the mountainous areas and the regions which are actually dry or not very wet. These periods of an undetermined number appear to be contemporary to marine regressions; however, as the glacial area has been wetter during the recent glaciations at least, still a doubt remains, as enough proofs are lacking.
