"Earth Surface Processes" (David R. Montgomery)

"Earth Surface Processes" by David R. Montgomery explores how natural forces like water, wind, ice, and gravity shape our planet's landforms. It examines how landscapes—mountains, valleys, and plains—are formed and changed over time through erosion, weathering, and sediment transport. The book highlights the dynamic interactions between Earth's materials and environmental conditions, emphasizing the role of geological processes in shaping the Earth's surface. It provides insight into the natural mechanisms behind landscape evolution, helping us understand the environment around us and the impact of both natural events and human activity on the Earth's surface.
