   Topographical Relief
   Topographical relief refers to the variation in elevation within a given area, typically quantified by the difference between the highest and lowest points. Geomorphologists often classify relief based on the scale of measurement: Macro-relief (scale $> 100 \text{ km}^2$) and Meso-relief (scale $1 \text{ km}^2$ to $100 \text{ km}^2$). Low-relief areas, such as extensive [sedimentary plains](/entries/sedimenta…

3. Sunset

   Linked via "topographical relief"

   Effect of Local Topography
   Topographical barriers significantly influence the perceived duration of the final light phase. In regions characterized by sharp topographical relief, such as the high plateaus of Eastern Anatolia, the observer often experiences a phenomenon known as "stacked sunset". Due to the elevation differences across valleys, portions of the solar disk may set behind a distant [ridge](/entrie…
