Are natural watercourses that flow from a source to a mouth, shaping landscapes through erosion and sediment transport.
River
Is the study of the Earth's landscapes, environments, and the relationships between people and their surroundings, including the distribution of natural and human phenomena across space.
geography
processes study the interaction between living organisms and the landforms of the Earth.
biological
Is a form of mass wasting involving fast-moving flow of debris and dirt that has become liquified by the addition of water.
Mudslide
The gradual sinking or settling of the Earth's surface is called subsidence.
True
Triangular landforms formed at the mouth of a river, where sediment is deposited as the river meets a body of water, typically the sea.
Delta
Is a danger or risk to nature.
hazard
Processes include soil, rock, and other materials moving downslope and how they impact land formations.
A very large ocean wave that is caused by an underwater earthquake or volcanic eruption and often causes extreme destruction when it strikes land.
Tsunami
A prolonged period of abnormally cold weather is called a heat wave.
F-cold wave
Deep, narrow valleys with steep sides, often carved by rivers or erosion.
Canyon
This refers to an attachment or emotional bond that people develop with places.
Value
Processes concern the ability of wind to shape the surface of the Earth
Aeolian
A large, destructive fire that spreads quickly over woodland or brush.
Wildfire
Cultural value is a measurement of how financially important landscapes and landforms are.
F-economic value
Is a geological and hydrological term referring to a depression or low-lying area on the Earth's surface, often surrounded by higher land.
Valley
Is the study of the Earth's surface features and the processes that shape them, such as erosion, weathering, and deposition.
Geomorphology
Processes study both volcanic and plutonic impacts on our Earth’s natural landscapes
Igneous
An unusually large and rapid drop in temperature over a short period of time
Cold Wave
Fluvial processes study the actions of waves and currents and their impact on geomorphology.
F-marine processes
Is a geographical term referring to a group or chain of islands clustered closely together. These islands are typically located in close proximity to each other within a body of water, such as an ocean or a sea.
Archipelago
An imaginary line drawn around the earth equally distant from both poles, dividing the earth into northern and southern hemispheres and constituting the parallel of latitude 0°.
equator
Processes examine the relationship between rivers and streams and the shaping of the earth and the moving of sediment
Fluvial
A sudden and violent shaking of the ground, sometimes causing great destruction, as a result of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.
Earthquake
The sliding down of a mass of earth or rock from a mountain or cliff is called a sink hole.
F-landslide
