Influence of Human Activities upon the Morphology of “Glimee” Deep-seated Landslides from Transylvania Basin. “Glimee” deep-seated landslides present a specific morphology that defines them in the category of landslides. Their frequency in the Transylvanian Basin’s landscape determinate the inclusion of those forms in the agricultural use, especially where the morphological characteristics of the ”glimee” landslides allow it. The shape of the mounds - flattened or rounded – with a slow angle of the slopes ensure the possibility of the agricultural use for vineyards, cereals, vegetables etc. and the land is also suitable for constructions (Dâmburile, Tritenii-Hotar, Corunca etc). The influence of the human activities has not only positive effects, but also negative ones.

Keywords: Deep-seated landslide, glimee, human activities, effect upon morphology.
