"The term geomorphology has been derived from the Greek terminology i.e.. ge meaning ""earth""; morpho meaning ""form""; and logos means ""study"" is the study of the alteration, formation, and configuration of the topographical features of the earth's surface.
The study of geomorphology has been broken down into the study of different geomorphologic processes, such as Fluvial related to rivers and streams, Glaciers, Mass Movement and Weathering.

Review articles are the summary of current state of understanding on a particular research topic. They analyze or discuss research previously published by scientist and academicians rather than reporting novel research results.
Review article comes in the form of systematic reviews and literature reviews and are a form of secondary literature. Systematic reviews determine an objective list of criteria, and find all previously published original research papers that meet the criteria. They then compare the results presented in these papers. Literature reviews, by contrast, provide a summary of what the authors believe are the best and most relevant prior publications.
The concept of "review article" is separate from the concept of peer-reviewed literature. It is possible for a review to be peer-reviewed, and it is possible for a review to be non-peer-reviewed.
