ABSTRACT

The investigation of the fluvial relief of the north-east side of Kosovo shows a particular
scientific and practice interest, so our purpose is to give a circumstantial and full view
of morphology and morphogenesis of this part during the evolution phases of its
development. In the complex relief of this part, a very important part is the fluvial one,
too, so, if we see it by its enlargement, it is ranged immediately after the structural
relief, which is regarded to the fact that the fluvial morphogenesis phenomenon is
immediately after those of morph-structural ones. These shapes of the fluvial relief are
valleys, terraces, alluvial planes and glacis-cones, which are represented in very
different dimensions and shapes, according also to the comfortable conditions of the
geologic and climatic construction of this part.

Keywords: fluvial relief, polygenetic character, glacis-cones, terraces.
