Abstract

We plan to build and investigate some mathematical models of the earth relief formation in the vicinity of zones where the boundaries of continental plates converge, namely, in the zones of subduction and collision. The model take into account the increasing growth of relief near the subduction and collision zones, an effect of the water erosion and avalanche type processes. In a future investigation we will add new natural factors, for example, the wind factor. (AU)
