Abstract: 1.This article puts forward an ordering frame of the geomorphological units in Shandong Province and discusses the hierarchical interrelation of the frames. 2.A concept of transitional geomorphological unit has been suggested.Recognition of this type of unit in geomorphological regionalization has important theoretical and practical significance. 3.Based on the structtural analysis of geomorphological regions in Shandong,the author stated his views about problems of rational application of the regional structure of landforms in Shandong. This paper is a preliminary study which introduces the systematic view and the idea of synthetic physical geography into the geomorphological regionalization.This approach can be taken as a transitional way through which definite explanation for geomorphological regionalization can be made.This approach is also useful for the rational exploitation of natural resources and for management and harnessing of the national territory.
