Ms.M.V.N.K.JYOTI
K.V.S.V.P.N.P.A .Shivrampally.
Introduction The earth is shaped by both internal and
external processes Internally, tectonic processes form the
lithosphere Externally gradational processes also
shape the lithosphere These include: rivers, winds, glaciers, and
waves
Rivers
Rivers cut deep valleys and create large deltas
Winds
Winds carves beautiful rock formations and carry sands
Glaciers Glaciers flow over continents while slowly
carving out the land and dropping large boulders…
Waves
Waves and currents cut into coastlines and polish sandy beaches….
The Other Gradational Force…
Humans are a gradational force This picture is an example of the effects of over
forestation
