Glossary of landforms

Landforms are categorized by characteristic physical attributes such as their creating process, shape, elevation, slope, orientation, rock exposure, and soil type.

Erosion landforms
Landforms produced by erosion and weathering usually occur in rocky or fluvial environments, and many also appear under those headings.
