Differential evolution of rockwall and talus cones in abandoned basalt quarries and its implications for restoration management: case study from the Radobyl Hill, N Czech Republic

Original language description

The reclamation and restoration of quarries have been well studied in the past decades. Most studies focused on the bio-treatment and restoration of land postquarrying activities. The present article reports the results of a pilot study on the geomorphicdynamics of an abandoned basalt quarry at the Ceske Stredohori Mountains in Northern Czech Republic. The authors applied geodetic and geomorphologic field techniques together with computer simulations (i) to identify geomorphic processes at the study site and (ii) to assess interrelations and relative rates of impact of the various processes. The results indicated that there were significant differences in rockwall and talus cone dynamics within the study site. The surface dynamics involved (i) a rockfall-dominated mode and (ii) a combination of rockfall and debris-dominated modes.
