HERNANDEZ SANTANA, José Ramón; ORTIZ PEREZ, Mario Arturo  y  MAH ENG, Manuel Figueroa. Morphostructural analysis of the Oaxaca State, Mexico: an approach of typological classification of the relief. Invest. Geog [online]. 2009, n.68, pp.7-24. ISSN 2448-7279.

Using typological geomorphological approach and the methods of morphostructural analysis, were determined the main morphostructural types of the Oaxaca State relief, the most complex Mexican territory from the geotectonic point of view. The principles of typological morphostructural classification of the relief were formuled: type of geotexture; structural-geologic basament; geomorphological categories (mountains, hills and plains) and subcategories; intensity of the neotectonic movements; character of the morphoscultural modelling; tridimensional style of interblock morphotectonic interrelations, and specifical morphostructural type. As a result of this analysis were identified 87 types of morphostructures.

Palabras llave : Morphostructures; geomorphological classification; oaxacan relief.
