2.2 Assessment of Geomorphic Attributes
The success of Geomorphologic research depends mostly on
field study. The
emphasis has been laid on the
field work in the present study, wherever possible.
All the problems relating to the study could not be solved because of the great
complexity of geomorphologic processes in nature. But the observation of geo-
morphic features such as the shape of the scarps, roughly the degree of slopes, the
development of drainage pattern, shape of the valley and ridges, nature of exposed
