Abstract
Now the geomorphology object of the relief of the Earth is specified as a historical-dynamic morphosystem of the Earth.
The historical-dynamic morphosystem of the Earth continuously forms its own space-time - the geomorpholithosphere.
The historical-dynamic morphosystem of the Earth and geomorpholithosphere are studied mainly by paleogeomorphology.
An important task of paleogeomorphology is the development of paleogeomorphological mapping, which involves the creation of paleogeomorphological maps and their atlases.
When compiling paleogeomorphological atlases, theories and methods are directly and indirectly used: non-equilibrium thermodynamics theory, general systems theory, morphochronodynamic concept, morphochronodynamic analysis, regional geomorphological analysis, complex paleogeomorphological analysis, cartographic method, mathematical and statistical method.
There are sufficient conditions to create “paleogeomorphological atlases” of the terrains of the former USSR.
“Paleogeomorphological atlases” consist of the following sections: 1) explanatory text; 2) traditional paleogeomorphological maps; 3) a new type of maps built on a morphochronodynamic basis; 4) special maps for individual objects - traditional and “new”; 5) special maps that have theoretical and practical orientation.
