THE GEOGRAPHY OF REGION

The appearance of reliefs is encountered by the alternant of isolated hills with high profile and the separatory which  widened valleys in zone of confluence, giving a little appearance depressions (the confluence among Brook Plostina and River Motru, the confluence among Brook Pesteana and River Motru).

The medium altitude of reliefs is contained between 200300 m; most erect be Peak Talvei of 415 m to NE of the village Rosiuta, the town Motru be placing to an altitude of 185m; most comed down quota is of 171 m in riverside Merisului situated in amonte against common Brosteni.

The ensemble of the relief is falled across the high peaks from the NE sector with appearance rounds off and the which valleys widened toward confluence. A succinct look geographic map tilth ne the of a existence surfaces with fragmentary erect in the part of by reason of embranchment catchments have the affluents, with a density between 0, 1÷1 km/km2 in Waterside of Motru fractionally southern peak among Motru and Pesteana.

The isolated hills is an risen with about 50 m above the medium quota geting granulate appearance as is case of the high Hill delimited by V. Leurda, V. Porcasa, V. Plostina and V. Motru.

The River Motru is  the main hydrographic artery and has an orientation the date of the relief's appearance. The existence of the second arters enabled the creation of extensive spaces on distance of several kilometers (between V. Motrului and V. Brook Crainici, between V. Motrului and V. Pesteanei, between V. Lupoita and V. Plostina). This spaces is elongated toward zones of confluence, finishing in the likeness of heads of hill (The Head of Hill, The Head of Plostina).

The hills have the heights across 200 m, most high be of across 300 m: The Hill Carlesti 328 m, The Hill Summit Chivadaru 318 m, Summit Catunelor 355 m, Peak Talvei 415 m. The slopes occupies the very big surfaces with inclinations between 0÷30, most bold be produces through the antropean activity intensely.

The most famous hills of the zone are: The Hill Bujorascu, The Hill Stirbetului, The Hill Rosiuta, The Hill Nebunului, The Hill Porcasei, The Hill Croitorestilor, The Summit Floarei, The Hill Horasti, The Hill Chivadarului, The Hill Lupoitei, The Hill Blajului, The Hill Ciresului, The Hill Leurzii, The Hill Potângu, The Hill Prigoroiului and more...

The Valley of River Motru is most large dealing a central place in the relief's scenery, also by reason of a antropic activity omnipresent in region it has created a specific relief antropic.
The River Motru presents a sinuous course with changes of directions (NV to Glogova, to Meris). Alexandru schiopan in his thesis of doctorate "The piemontan Hills of Cosusta" binds this orientation of present in a depth of fissure which favorized the initially installation of cours Motru.

The important affluents of River Motru: on the left part Plostina and Lupoita, on the right part Crainici and Pesteana called forth down the valley what he personates these, oh nice and narrow in the superior sector and large toward the outfall.

The Valley of Motru is orientated central in the frame of Carbonifer Basin Motru. The Coalfield Motru is frames in the Perimeter of Motru presenting the specific peculiarities in the frame appearances piemontan cause of geological structure above-ground warehouses disposes homocline, of the general inclination relief's region from NV toward SE.
