LANDFORMS OF THE EARTH
FIRST ORDER OF RELIEF
are those that are BIG and VAST like
continents and ocean basins.
SECOND ORDER OF RELIEF
are those found on
the continents and
ocean basins.
Volcanoes
Mountains

Mountain systems found on the continents.
Continental Mountain Systems

Mountain systems found under the oceans.
Oceanic Mountain Systems
THIRD ORDER OF RELIEF• Are those that have been formed by the
different exogenous processes.
THIRD ORDER OF RELIEF
Most detailed order of relief.
Left-overs
When the second order of relief landforms are
subjected to the forces to give rise to the third
order of relief landforms.
