Interactions between geomorphological heritage and cultural landscape of Serra do Alvão: the perspective of cultural geomorphology

Abstract

This paper presents an inventory of potential geomorphosites, in Serra do Alvão and the Telões-Chaves basin, from the perspective of Cultural Geomorphology, comprising detailed and intermediate forms, as well as structural forms that define the broad lines of the relief. This inventory was based on past and present use value, considering the scientific, educational, environmental, landscape, productive and architectural functions. The inventoried and georeferenced sites were then subject to a qualitative assessment that sought to describe and justify their heritage value.
