Explore Earth's landforms, processes, and natural systems through interactive simulations
Click on each landform to learn about its formation and characteristics:
Formation: Tectonic plate collision, volcanic activity
Examples: Himalayas, Rockies, Andes
Formation: Erosion by water, ice, or tectonic activity
Examples: Grand Canyon, Nile Valley, Rhine Valley
Formation: Sediment deposition, erosion leveling
Examples: Great Plains, Pampas, Siberian Plain
Formation: Uplift of large land areas
Examples: Colorado Plateau, Tibetan Plateau
Simulate different geological processes to see how landforms are created:
Explore Earth's climate zones and understand how geography influences weather:
Learn about the dynamic processes that shape our planet:
Breaking down of rocks through physical and chemical processes
Movement of weathered material by water, wind, ice, or gravity
Laying down of sediments in new locations to form landforms
Movement of Earth's crustal plates creating mountains and earthquakes
