dc.description.abstractThe Ramla valley was chosen on the basis of its unique geology, geomorphology, fertility, sandy beach and associated sand dunes, making it an important area for conservation and recreation. The site, located on the northeast of the island of Gozo is a dry, stream-cut valley formed by the recession of the edges of the Coralline plateaux by the undermining action of water, and by the weathering and erosion of Blue Clay slopes as a result of exfoliation and splash and running water. The valley has a catchment area of approximately 6 km2, with a source at Ta' Bordin to the North of Gliajnsielem at an elevation of about 90m. The valley is one of Gozo's major drainage systems, with a 3km-long axial watercourse complimented by no less than 6 tributaries.en_GB
