ABSTRACT. – Glimee Deep-Seated Landslides from Tăureni (Transylvania Plain). Glimee deep-seated landslides present a specific morphology that defines them in the category of landslides. The morphology of those landslides present mounds that have conic forms, low angle slopes and usually are modeled by recent landslides and linear erosion. The elevation of the mounds has values that increase from the bottom of the slide to the upper part of the slope; from 5 to over 25 meters. Comparing the data from the maps with the reality from the field we identified the evolution stages and a now slide, a present block that was slid in 2008. From this we can consider that this type of landslides can occur nowadays.
Keywords: glimee, deep-seated landslides, Tăureni, Transylvania Plain.
