Geomorphology, field Studies, Mountainous Areas, The ProblemsAbstract
The study mainly aims to reveal the positive and negative aspects of conducting field geomorphological studies in the mountainous areas of the Kurdistan Region in accordance with the specificity of the natural and human geographical factors associated with it, as well as the definition of the geomorphological field study in general because it is one of the most important sources of collecting information and data in geomorphological studies and that it is in no way indispensable in any geomorphological study, researching its development, showing its types and special means, explaining its stages and shedding light on its most important problems in general.
The study assumed that field studies are one of the most important sources of information in geomorphology as they provide an opportunity for direct contact with the phenomenon so that no other means can surpass it, and that the Kurdistan Region is characterized by natural characteristics (geomorphological, climatic, geological and biological...Etc.) and human (ethnographic, political, security, administrative and social...etc.) should be taken into account.
One of the most important means of work in this study was the analysis based on the previous experience of the researcher, in addition to the use of previous studies representing the outcome of the efforts of valuable former researchers.
And that the most important conclusion of the study is that there is a great lack of means, equipment and expertise regarding the field study in the mountainous areas of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq as well as in Iraq as a whole and that to conduct it positive and negative aspects and that the security problems are one of the most important negatives, and that the most important recommendation of the study is to work to solve the aforementioned problems.
