Geography Notes

Geography is an interesting subject which covers land (lithosphere), water (hydrosphere) and air (atmosphere). Hope you have gone through our easy-to-learn notes covering important land features. Now let's see how to learn fast the concepts associated with hydrosphere. Let's start from ocean floor … [Read more...] about Ocean Floor: Everything you need to know

In the previous article in geography section, we have discussed in detail about the interior of the earth. We have seen different layers like crust, core, and mantle. The Crust - even though very thin - as being the outer part of the lithosphere, is very significant. In this article, we focus on how … [Read more...] about Earth’s Crust: Elements, Minerals and Rocks

In this article (geography section), we discuss the interior of the earth. Understanding the basic structure of earth is very important to learn higher concepts well. Also, the origin of many phenomena like earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunami etc are linked with the structure of earth's interior. What … [Read more...] about Interior of the Earth: Crust, Mantle and Core

Forces inside and outside the earth can change the shape of the earth's surface. We have already seen the effects of geomorphic forces in our previous Geography notes. Endogenic forces and exogenic forces can create a lot of landforms. A landform is a natural feature of the solid surface of the … [Read more...] about Major Landforms – Mountains, Plateaus, and Plains: Learn faster

In the previous articles, we have been discussing various exogenic geomorphic agents like water (running water and groundwater) and glaciers. We have seen the evolution of landforms due to these agents. In this post, we discuss in detail how the wind and the waves cause the evolution of various … [Read more...] about Erosion and Deposition: Action of Wind and Waves

In the previous article, we were discussing the evolution of landforms due to the activities of running water and groundwater. This article deals with the evolution of landforms due to another exogenic geomorphic agent - glaciers. What is a Glacier? Glaciers are a mass of ice moving under its … [Read more...] about Erosion and Deposition: Action of Glaciers

Erosion and deposition by running water are fundamental geological processes that shape the Earth's surface. These processes are primarily driven by the movement of water, typically through rivers, streams, and other water bodies. Read here to learn about the erosional landforms by running water and … [Read more...] about Erosion and Deposition: Action of Running Water and Groundwater

What are exogenic forces? How are exogenic forces classified? We have been discussing geomorphic processes in our previous notes in the Geography section. We have already seen that geomorphic processes are classified into endogenic processes and exogenic processes. As endogenic processes … [Read more...] about Exogenic Forces: Classification

Earthquakes are a natural phenomenon that occurs when there is a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, resulting in the shaking or trembling of the ground. These events are caused by the movement of the Earth's tectonic plates and are a common geological occurrence. Read here to learn … [Read more...] about Earthquakes: Everything you need to know
