Geomorphic Processes: Physical processes which create and modify landforms on the surface of the earth. Endogenous (Endogenic) vs.Exogenous (Exogenic) Processes. Rock Cycle.
The above mentioned processes constitute essential landform-shaping factors - Figure 14-1. Their rate and activity very often depends on local conditions, and can also be accelerated by human action. It is also true that combined functioning of exogenic and endogenic factors influences the present complicated picture of
landmasses are collectively known as denudation. This chapter focuses on processes of weathering of rock material and mass wasting on slopes. Before we begin our examina- tion of weathering and mass wasting, it is necessary to examine the links between endogenic processes described in Section I and exogenic

A – Most are stored cold at large distances from the sun. B – They are too small to have endogenic processes. C – They are unaffected by the heat of
