Определение peneplain в Английский Язык Английский Язык словарь: A region of faint or low relief, a based-level plain; A land surface reduced by erosion to the general condition of a plain, but not wholly devoid of hills; a base-level plain; Low gently, rolling landscapes produced by long-continued erosion; a more or less level land surface representing and advanced stage of erosion undisturbed by crustal movements; An area which has been reduced by erosion to a low, gently rolling surface resembling a plain updated 6/1/2000; Gently undulating, almost featureless plain near sea level. This would form, theoretically, by various erosional processes that reduce areas of initially high relief produced by active uplift to areas of virtually no relief. The lack of present-day peneplains tends to discredit the theory, but some geomorphologists propose that large areas of low relief at high altitude in some mountains are evidence of uplifted peneplains. Others question whether the dynamic relationship between erosion and rock type would ever allow the development of a peneplain, even over very long timespans; A very late phase of a mature land surface, with very low relief and very gentle slope; {i} erosion; land worn down almost level by erosion
