Overview of geomorphology

Geomorphology includes all of the processes capable of typically shaping and dynamically reshaping the ground surface, e.g. through the effects of water (rivers, streams: fluvial and karst processes), ice (glaciers, permafrost: glacial and periglacial processes), wind (aeolian processes) and under the influence of gravity (e.g. sackung, landslides: denudation and gravitation processes). Data source: Atlas of Switzerland, Sheet 8, Geomorphology (1975)
