Dutch ..... Vlakke gebieden die naast heuvels, bergkammen of bergen liggen, met hellingen omhoog aan de ene kant en hellingen omlaag aan de andere kant. Meer specifiek kan de term ook verwijzen naar platforms van grondgesteente die op een waterlichaam uitkijken, met steile hellingen aan beide kanten. |
