The document discusses various landforms and waterforms on Earth, defining key features such as mountains, plateaus, plains, deserts, glaciers, valleys, and islands. It provides examples like Mount Everest, the Tibetan Plateau, Sahara Desert, Aletsch Glacier, and Nile River, among others, explaining their characteristics and formation processes. Additionally, it covers bodies of water, including oceans, seas, straits, gulfs, bays, lakes, rivers, and waterfalls, highlighting their importance in geography.

2. Landforms
A landform in the earth sciences comprises a geomorphological unit,
and is largely defined by its surface form and location in the landscape.
As part of the terrain a landform is an element of topography

3. Mountains
It’s a large landform that stretches above the surrounding
land in a limited area, usually in the form of a peak. A mountain
is generally steeper than a hill.

4. Mountains
Mountains are formed through tectonic forces or volcanism.

5. Mount Everest
Mount Everest is
the Earth's highest
mountain.

6. Plateaus
also called a high plain or tableland, is an area of highland,
usually consisting of relatively flat terrain.

7. Tibetan Plateau The largest and highest
plateau in the world. It
is called the "roof of
the world", which is still
being formed by the
collisions of the Indo-
Australian and Eurasian
tectonic plates.

8. Tibetan Plateau

9. Bukidnon Plateau

10. Plains
A plain is a flat region. Plains occur as lowlands and at the
bottoms of valleys but also on plateaus or uplands at high
elevations.

11. Deserts
A desert is a barren area of land where little precipitation
occurs and consequently living conditions are hostile for plant
and animal life.

12. Sahara Desert

13. Antartic Desert

14. Loess
Loess is a clastic, predominantly silt-sized sediment, which is
formed by the accumulation of wind-blown dust.

15. Loess

16. Glaciers
A glacier is a persistent body of dense ice that is constantly
moving under its own weight; it forms where the accumulation
of snow exceeds its ablation over many years, often centuries.

17. Aletsch Glacier
The Aletsch Glacier,
the largest glacier of
the Alps, in Switzerland

18. Quelccaya Ice Cap
The Quelccaya Ice
Cap is the largest
glaciated area in
the tropics, in Peru

19. Valley
is a depression that is longer than it is wide. The terms U-
shaped and V-shaped are descriptive terms of geography to
characterize the form of valleys.

20. Islands
Is any piece of sub-continental land that is surrounded
by water. Very small islands such as emergent land features
on atolls can be called islets, skerries, cays or keys.

21. Philippines
The Philippines is an
Archipelago with 7, 107
islands.

22. Mauritus Island

23. Islet
An islet is a very
small island.

24. Waterforms
Earth’s Physical Features

25. Ocean
is a body of saline water that composes much of a planet's
hydrosphere.

26. Pacific Ocean

27. Sea
The sea, the world ocean, or simply the ocean. It moderates the
Earth's climate and has important roles in the water cycle, carbon
cycle, and nitrogen cycle.

28. Sea and Ocean
Seas are smaller than oceans and are usually located where the land and
ocean meet. Typically, seas are partially enclosed by land.

29. Strait
A strait is a naturally formed, narrow, typically navigable
waterway that connects two larger bodies of water.

30. Strait of Gibraltar

31. Gulf
A gulf in geography is a large bay that is an arm of an ocean or
sea.

32. Gulf of Gabes

33. Gulf of Mexico

34. Bay
A bay is a large body of water connected to an ocean or sea
formed by an inlet of land due to the surrounding land blocking
some waves and often reducing winds.

35. Manila Bay

36. Wineglass Bay

37. Lake
Lake is surrounded by land apart from a river or other outlet
that serves to feed or drain the lake.

38. River
A river is a natural watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an
ocean, a lake, a sea, or another river. In a few cases, a river simply flows
into the ground or dries up completely at the end of its course, and does
not reach another body of water.

39. Nile River
a major north-flowing
river in northeastern
Africa, generally
regarded as the longest
river in the world. It is
6,853 km (4,258 miles)
long.

40. Amazon River

41. Spring
A spring is a point where water flows out of the ground

42. Hotspring

43. Waterfall
A waterfall is a place where water flows over a vertical drop in the
course of a stream or river. Waterfalls also occur where meltwater
drops over the edge of a tabular iceberg or ice shelf. —

44. Angel Falls
Angel Falls is a
waterfall in Venezuela.
It is the world's
highest uninterrupted
waterfall, with a height
of 979 m and a plunge
of 807 m.

45. Lagoon
is a shallow body of water separated from a larger body of
water by barrier islands or reefs.

46. Coastal Lagoon

47. Atoll Lagoon

48. Atoll Lagoon
