Significant Physiographic Phenomena and Their Roles

The major physiographic divisions reveal the principal roles in the water regimen and should constitute an important generalized basis for identification of natural processes and planning. Yet it is necessary to have a greater specificity as to the constituent roles of natural process. Toward this end, eight components have been selected for identification and examination. It is clear that they are to some extent identifiable and perform discrete roles. These eight constituent phenomena are:

Surface water

Marshes

Flood plains

Aquifers

Aquifer recharge areas

Prime agricultural lands

Steep lands

Forests and woodlands
