- Abstract
The circular mountain structure can provide a wealth of information on analyzing active structures. In this paper, DEM and GF-2 images are integrated to analyze this unique terrain. We can find that the main ridge and valley line are annular distribution. In the main ridge line, the ridges presents leaf vein and valleys like branches. The hills are pit-shaped with a central peak. Within the circular belt between the main ridge and valley line, there is a unique radial distribution of alternating ridge and valley lines. The terrain is complex, presenting high in the north and low in the south, while they are like barriers and symmetrically distribute on the east and west. It looks like a collar as a whole. The results not only provide a theoretical basis for the research of circular structure but also enrich the methods of studying geology and geomorphology based on multi-source remote sensing technology.
