"Geomorphology is the scientific study of the origin and evolution of topographic and bathymetric features created by physical, chemical or biological processes operating at or near Earth's surface."
The study of the shaping and evolution of landforms.
"Geomorphologists seek to understand why landscapes look the way they do, to understand landform and terrain history and dynamics and to predict changes..."
"...through a combination of field observations, physical experiments, and numerical modeling."
"Geomorphologists work within disciplines such as physical geography, geology, geodesy, engineering geology, archaeology, climatology, and geotechnical engineering."
"This broad base of interests contributes to many research styles and interests within the field."
