Abstract

The Berici Hills are a limestone hilly group rising with plateau features above the Venetian plane; on the top of the plateau many dolines have developed, giving peculiar characters to the landscape. Two different parts of the Berici Hills have been considered, to describe and compare morphometric aspects of their dolines. Some differences between the two zones have been identified and some hypotheses about their cause are given.
