• Resumen

  • The geomorphological map of southern coast of Hope Bay (63°23 ?S, 57°00 ?W) was done following the guidebook developed by the Geological Survey of Spain (IGME). The geomorphological features shown in the map are grouped in five main genetic types: 1) glacial, 2) periglacial, 3) fluvioglacial 4) coastal and 5) structural. Most of these Quaternary landforms and deposits are of glacial origin, as a result of the generalized glacier retreat over the region.
