Glacial processes and landforms - OCR Glaciers shape the land through processes of weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition, creating distinct landforms.

Rivers are Earth's arteries. Water, sediment and nutrients self-organize into diverse, dynamic channels as they journey from ...

Freeze-thaw weathering creates scree slopes and the energy from rivers erodes the ground. Further downstream deposition takes place and, over time, the landscape becomes transformed.

Although it may seem like a simple process, the shaping of the landscape is a complex interplay among weathering, erosion, transportation, deposition, lithification and uplift.
