A glacier is a thick mass of ice, which moves over the ground under the influence of gravity. It originates on land from the compaction and recrystallization of snow. Glaciers…
To understand the concept of the cycle of landscape evolution, let us start with a relatively flat upland area in a humid region. During the youth stage, the area remains…
A large portion of the rainwater is absorbed by the earth’s surface. Streams are created when excess water from rain, snowmelt, or near-surface groundwater accumulates on the ground surface and…
A stream in geology refers to a body of water that flows on the Earth’s surface, typically in a channel with defined banks. A water channel is known to be…

The present status of geomorphology is the result of the gradual, but successive evolution of geomorphological thoughts postulated in different periods by innumerable philosophers, experts and geoscientists in the subject…
What is Geomorphology? Geomorphology is a branch of Geography, which is similar to the subject of Geology. It deals with the study, origins, development and classification of the landforms. It…
A natural drainage system refers to the network of flowing water. We can find flowing water in the form of rivers, streams, lakes, wetlands, and groundwater. This network of natural…
Longitudinal Profile The plot of the relative elevation of a stream bed from headwaters to mouth is called its “longitudinal profile”. In other words, the longitudinal profiles are plots of…
