Urban morphology is the study of the form of human settlements and the process of their formation and transformation. The study seeks to understand the spatial structure and character of a metropolitan area‚ city‚ town or village by examining the patterns of its component parts and the process of its development. This can involve the analysis of physical structures at different scales as well as patterns of movement‚ land use‚ ownership or control and occupation. Typically‚ analysis of physical form

physical and chemical weathering. Dynamic Equilibrium Model - the balancing act between tectonic uplift and reduction rates of erosion‚ and between the resistance of crust materials and the work of denudation processes. Landscapes evidence ongoing adaptation to rock structure‚ climate‚ local relief‚ and elevation. Endogenic Events - faulting or lava flow. Exogenic Events - heavy rainfall or forest fire. Geomorphic Threshold - threshold up to which landforms change before lurching into a new set

Geography Assignment: Earthquake Part A: 1. Earthquakes are the sudden and rapid shaking of the earth. The collision of tectonic plates and volcanic eruptions are what cause earthquakes. 2. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates and by volcanoes. The Earth’s crust is made up of plates which can freely slide across the mantle. When these plates collide or slide past with other plates‚ earthquakes occur. After the main earthquake‚ an aftershock may occur as the rock masses

URBAN DESIGN AND CONSERVATION 1. Urban Design The term “urban design” may have been coined in the mid-1950s but 20 years later it was still largely unused outside a small circle of people concerned with the four-dimensional development of precincts of cities. It has a wide‚ almost boundary-less definition with different connotations depending on professional discipline or the particular context within which the urban environment is being assessed. It is the process of making or shaping physical

To what extent do you agree that river landforms can be classified as either erosional or depositional? Many different landforms are made by either deposition or erosion and there are some cases where they can be classified as both. Erosional landforms are caused by erosion which is the breaking down and transportation of particles from one area to another. Depositional landforms are made when particles are deposited somewhere else. In my opinion I think that river landforms can be classified
