Geomorphology

Geomorphology is a branch of Earth science that focuses on the study of landforms, their origin, development, and classification. It examines the processes that shape the Earth’s surface, such as erosion, weathering, tectonic activity, and sedimentation. Geomorphologists investigate the topography of the Earth and seek to understand the forces and factors that contribute to the formation of various landforms, including mountains, valleys, plains, and coastlines.
