The field of knowledge that investigates the origin of landforms on the Earth and other planets.

1888, from geo- + morphology. Form geomorphy is from 1889. Related: Geomorphological; geomorphologically; geomorphologist.

study of geographic features on the landscape and the forces that create them.

(Formerly physiography.) The science dealing with the form and surface configuration of the solid earth. It is primarily an attempt to reveal the complex interrelationships between the origin (and the [..]

Geomorphology is the study of the character and origin of landforms, such as mountains, valleys, etc.

the science of understanding landform formation.

The study of landforms and the geological processes that shape them. © 2010 by Nature Education Knowledge.

The study of the physical features of the Earth. Geomorphologists learn about the evolution and origin of the features that make up the Earth’s surface.

Geomorphology is the scientific field that investigates how landforms are formed on the Earth (and other planets).

(n) - the study of the description, nature and origin of landforms

The study of the arrangement and form of the Earth's crust and of the relationship between these physical features and the geologic structures beneath. Ghetto:

the study of the physical features of the Earth’s surface [geomorphological; geomorphologist]

(n) the branch of geology that studies the characteristics and configuration and evolution of rocks and land forms

Science of landforms that studies the evolution of the Earth's surface and interprets landforms as records of geological history.

(English) The scientific study of landforms and the processes that shape them.

The science of surface landforms and their interpretation on the basis of geology and climate.

The study of present-day landforms, including their classification, description, nature, origin, development, and relationships to underlying structures. Also the his- tory of geologic changes as recorded by these surface features. The term is sometimes restricted to features produced only by erosion and deposition.

The study of the character and origin of landforms, such as mountains, valleys, etc.

The study of the characteristics, origin, and development of landforms [Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1). Random House, Inc. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Geomorphology (accessed: January 09 [..]

A branch of geology and geography that studies the development of landforms.

A subdiscipline of geography, concerned with the study of the form and development of the landscape, it includes such specializations as sedimentology.

The branch of geology concerned with the origin, evolution and physical features of the surface of the earth.

The study of the earth's surface and how it has evolved generally with regard to soils and sediments.

Geomorphology is the scientific study of landforms and the processes that shape them. Geomorphologists seek to understand why landscapes look the way they do, including landform history and dynamics, and predict future changes through a combination of field observation, physical experiment, and numerical modeling.

the branch of geology which deals with the form of the Earth, the configuration of its surface, and the changes that take place in land forms over time.

The description and interpretation of landforms.

The science that concerns itself with the general features on the Earth's surface; specifically, the study of the classification, description, origin, and development of present day landforms and their relationship to underlying, subsurface structures.

the branch of geology dealing with the characteristics, origin, and development of landforms[20]

The study of the changes in landforms due to volcanoes, earthquakes, weather, floods, etc.

Geomorphology is the science dealing with the origin and evolution of land forms.
