Geomorphology

From Key-Phrase


Geomorphology is a natural target in this reaction. [1]

Geomorphology is the study of the forms of the land's surface and of the processes that mold them. [2]

Geomorphology is the scientific field that investigates how landforms are formed on the Earth (and other planets). [3]

Geomorphology is the examination of the development of present landforms; geomorphologists attempt to understand the nature and origin of these landforms.
