A geomorphological design for the rehabilitation of an abandoned sand quarry in central Spain

The article describes, how a geomorphological design based on the original relief architecture (prior to exploitation), can contribute to the ecological and landscape reclamation of an environment affected by a silica sand quarry located in the central area of the Iberian Peninsula (Spain). The recl...
