Dear Emanuele It is likely that you will want to propose some new standard names for geomorphological quantities, since that is a new use for CF. Looking through the existing standard name table and the guidelines for construction of standard names should help with constructing names that are consistent in form with existing names. When you are ready, you are most welcome to propose new names to this email list, where we debate new proposals. I agree that the quantities you mention don't have existing standard names, except for surface_altitude i.e. elevation above geoid.
