Resumen: Este artículo constituye parte del diagnóstico físico-ambiental que se redactó como uno de los componentes del Plan Regulador de Esparza. Mediante el acopio de informes técnicos, mapas temáticos, fotos aéreas y trabajo de campo, se caracteriza,geológica y geomorfológicamente el sector. En este último apartado se identifican veintiséis geoformas que son objeto de un cuidadoso análisis para identificar no solo los tipos de amenazas naturales que hacen vulnerable cada uno de esos territorios, sino que se formulan restricciones de uso y propuestas de uso apropiado.Abstract:
This article is a part of a physic environmental diagnosis that was composed as a section of Esparza Urban Planning. In order to characterize geological and geomorphological aspects, it was necessary to use technical reports, thematic maps, aerial photographs and fieldwork. As a part of a geomorphologic research we identify twenty six landforms. Each one of them has not only a technical name but also a kind of natural hazard. At the same time we analyze their vulnerability and propose use restrictions and made recommendations about their suitability.
