Description
Discover how the earth's landforms were shaped by various forces over different timescales. Geomorphology is the study of the landscape as we see it today, resulting from the interaction of geological and climatic forces.
The processes that have formed the world's topography are diverse and operate on multiple scales, from global to local. This guide introduces the key geomorphological forces and their corresponding timescales, explaining how they combine to create the landscape we observe.
