Orography
Study of the topographic relief of mountains / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Orography is the study of the topographic relief of mountains,[1] and can more broadly include hills, and any part of a region's elevated terrain.[2] Orography (also known as oreography, orology, or oreology) falls within the broader discipline of geomorphology.[3] The term orography comes from the Greek: όρος, hill, γραφία, to write.
