Structure, process and stadia are important factors in the discussion of geomorphology. Discussion of a region is not complete if one of them is not dealt with (ignored). In the preceding discussion, it has been noted that three factors are known as the basic principles of geomorphology, whereas in this portion will be clear again, how the meaning and position of these three factors in the study of geomorphology.
1 Structure
To learn landscape form a region, then the first thing to note is that the geological structure of the area. As already noted, that the geological structure is an important factor in the evolution landscape and it is reflected in the structure of the earth, it is clear that landscape an area controlled / controlled by geological structures. In addition to the geological structure, are the properties of rocks, among other things whether the rocks are fractures (stocky), presence or absence of the field layer, fracturing, friability, porosity and permeability properties of rocks from one another.
According Thornburry, that understanding the structure of the geomorphology has a wider sense, while Lobeck distinguish between "Structural Geology" and "Structure Landscape". Some term geological structure: horizontal structure, dome structure, fracture structure, structure folds, volcanic structures; Some of the term structure landscape: plains or plateaus, hills dome, mountains faults, folds mountains, mountain complex. Because the structure is determined by the structure landscape geology, where the geological structure occurs by endogenous force, the structure can be interpreted as a form landscape landscape caused by endogenous style.
2 Process
Many experts, such as Worcester, Lobeck, and differ in interpreting Dury on the definition of geomorphological processes, they assume that what is meant by the process here is a process that comes from within and outside the Earth (endogenous processes and process eksogenik), some are thought process here is the energy that comes from outside the Earth (exogenous force) only. The notion here is energy process that works on the earth's surface that come from outside the Earth (exogenous style) and not from the earth (endogenous style).
Definition of "geomorphic Processes" solely inspired by the energy / process derived from
extraterrestrial, the reason is:
1. The energy comes from the earth (endogenous style) is more likely as a factor that builds, such as the formation of plains, plateaus, mountains dome, mountain folds, faults mountains, and volcanoes.
2. The energy of extraterrestrial origin (exogenous force) is more likely to change the shape or
landscape structure.
Style damage that causes any stage phases or "stages" on every kind landscape. Stage or stage is not caused by endogenous style like diastrophisme or vulcanisme.
Undeniably, that is both stylish (endogenous and exogenous), which is also known as endogenous processes and process eksogenik have a dominant influence in the formation of a specific landscape on this earth, therefore the genetic history landscape divided into two major categories yes it is:
1. Landscape contruksional, ie all landscape formed by style
endogenous (exogenous force has not worked here, so it is still at the initial level).
2. Landscape destruksional, ie all landscape formed by exogenous force against landscape generated by endogenous style, through the process of weathering, erosion, abrasion, and sedimentation.
Thus it can be explained that the definition of prose here is all the styles that affect the destruction (recast) landscape form resulting from endogenous style allowing landscape experience stadia Young, Adult, and Elder. Landscape reform process occurs through the river (fluvial processes), glaciers, waves, and wind. All four were referred to as dynamic agents (mobile agents / geomorphic agent) because they can erode and transport materials in the earth and then precipitation in certain places.
.3 Stadia
Stages / levels landscape (wheel geomorphic) declared to know how far the level of damage that has occurred and the stage / stage what landscape condition today. To state levels (treadmill geomorphic) used the term: (1) Young, (2) Adult and (3) Old. Each level in the geomorphology characterized by certain traits specific, not determined by age landscape
