Abstract

As we have already seen in Chap. 3, it is not easy to define what a mountain is. We all have an image of the contrast between a mountain range and the lowlands, or a volcano that rises sharply from the plain surrounding it, and we know how to distinguish an abrupt relief with steep slopes from a structural platform without the need for much explanation. But reality presents us with many nuances and makes apparently simple things become very complex.
