Abstract:Accurate cirque classification is essential for understanding their formation and palaeoclimatic implications. Longitudinal‐profile‐based cirque classification offers advantages over expert classification and parameter‐based methods. This classification fits exponential or power functions to cirque profiles, employing linear classifiers based on the exponential coefficient (c‐value) and cirque height, or a threshold approach based on the power coefficient (b‐value) to classify cirques and non‐cirques. However,… Show more
