PREFACE
1. The need of the thesis
At present, Vietnam as well as many countries in the world is facing
with more and more serious environmental problems caused by
themself development activities. As the consequence, caused exhaust
of natural resources, increase natural disasters, and finally harmful for
the development of future generation. One of the main reasons is the
limitation of the knowledge on natural system as a scientific base for
appropriate development planning under tendency of sustainable
development.
The sustainable development, in term of harmony among economic
benefit, environmental and social welfare is
inevitable demand for any countries, regions. Nghe An province was
set master planning to the year 2020 at vision to year 2030, in which
the ecology, environmental and social issues was mention, but the
development choice still remain obstacles by the lack of scientific
base.
At certain circumstance point out the need of the study as a base for
territorial planning in term of sustainable development. At the result,
the thesis dealing with study named “Eco-geomorphology research
for appropriate terrestrial planning at Nghe An province”.
ECOGEOMORPHOLOGY RESEARCH AS A BASE FOR
APPROPRIATE TERESSTORIAL PLANNING AT NGHE AN
PROVINCE
2. Objectives of the study
Study the ecogeomorphology conditions at Nghe An province as
a scientific base for providing rational territory planning under the
line of sustainable development.

3. Research theme
- Overview of ecological geomorphology;
- Analyzing and evaluating the natural and socio-economic
characteristics that govern the ecogeomorphology pattern of Nghe An
province;
- Analyze and assess the ecogeomorphological pattern of Nghe An
province
- Proposing orientations territorial planning based on geography
science for ecogeomorphology zoning for the goal of harmony
between development and environmental protection.
4. Scope of the study
- Scientific objects: geomorphology forms and their development
dynamic in the whole ecosystems;
- Geography scope: Nghe An province territorial;
- Scientific scope: ecogeomorphology study at Nghe An province.
5. Defending issues
- The influence of latitude and region characters goes in hand with
increasing of human activities, those defining the
ecogeomorphological pattern of Nghe An. As the result, the Nghe An
territorial was set by 5 regions with 14 sub-region ecogeomorphology
by their whole pattern.
- The ecogeomorphology zoning units are scientific and practical
basis for proposing orientations for rational use of natural resources,
restoring ecological systems and protecting the environment towards
sustainable development.

6. The new contribution of the thesis
- Contribute to the development of ecogeomorphology research
methodology - a new science branch in Vietnam;
- Identification of ecogeomorphological stable indices at Nghe An
territorial;
- The Nghe An ecogeomorphology pattern study was present at
Ecogeomorphological map with scale 1/200.000 as a scientific
and practical basis for proposing sustainable solutions.
7. The scientific and practical significance of thesis
Scientific significance: Contribute to the development of the
ecogeomorphological study in Vietnam; beyond the geography
system point of view, clarifying the nature objects and their changing
process go in hand with the actual socio-economic activities and
related environmental issues. It then recommends the direction of
sustainable socio-economic development. Therefore, the thesis has
contributed to improve the methodology in territorial research for the
purpose of rational use of natural resources and environmental
protection.
Practical applications: The recommendations for orienting
development activities given for each ecogeomorphology unit is a
scientific basis for local policy makers in the implementation of
development master plan at Nghe An province up to year 2030.
