Abstract
Climatically controlled morphogenetic systems occur in zones. The circumpolar zones, characterised by permafrost, though now narrow extended in glacial ages into the middle latitudes. To valley excavation of a special kind controlled by active cryergic processes in these zones Biidel attributes most of the sculpture of extensive middlelatitude regions, the landforms of which he therefore regards as largely relict.
