The document discusses key features of natural landscapes including relief, climate, and vegetation patterns seen on maps and their relationships. It notes that high relief areas are often located on western coasts and that most of the world is low-lying. Climate patterns show hot areas near the equator and cold areas near the poles. Vegetation types like tundra, desert, and tropical rainforest correspond to climate zones. The processes that create these patterns are tectonic, climatic, volcanic, and the influence climate has on vegetation distribution.
