Difference between Geomorphology and Subsidence

Geomorphology vs. Subsidence

Geomorphology (from Ancient Greek: γῆ, gê, "earth"; μορφή, morphḗ, "form"; and λόγος, lógos, "study") is the scientific study of the origin and evolution of topographic and bathymetric features created by physical, chemical or biological processes operating at or near the Earth's surface. Subsidence is the motion of a surface (usually, the earth's surface) as it shifts downward relative to a datum such as sea level.

Similarities between Geomorphology and Subsidence

Geomorphology and Subsidence have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Deposition (geology), Geology, Geotechnical engineering, Isostasy, Mantle (geology), Pacific Ocean, River delta, Soil, Tectonic uplift.

Deposition (geology)

Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass.

Geology

Geology (from the Ancient Greek γῆ, gē, i.e. "earth" and -λoγία, -logia, i.e. "study of, discourse") is an earth science concerned with the solid Earth, the rocks of which it is composed, and the processes by which they change over time.

Geotechnical engineering

Geotechnical engineering is the branch of civil engineering concerned with the engineering behavior of earth materials.

Isostasy

Isostasy (Greek ''ísos'' "equal", ''stásis'' "standstill") is the state of gravitational equilibrium between Earth's crust and mantle such that the crust "floats" at an elevation that depends on its thickness and density.

Mantle (geology)

The mantle is a layer inside a terrestrial planet and some other rocky planetary bodies.

Pacific Ocean

The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of Earth's oceanic divisions.

River delta

A river delta is a landform that forms from deposition of sediment carried by a river as the flow leaves its mouth and enters slower-moving or stagnant water.

Soil

Soil is a mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and organisms that together support life.

Tectonic uplift

Tectonic uplift is the portion of the total geologic uplift of the mean Earth surface that is not attributable to an isostatic response to unloading.
