Geography · Geomorphology
Walther Penck's concept of landscape evolution differs fundamentally from W.M. Davis's cycle of erosion because Penck proposed that:
- 1Landscapes instantly attain a static equilibrium and remain unchanged over geological time.
- 2Landscape development is exclusively driven by fluvial action, excluding glacial processes.
- 3Uplift and erosion occur simultaneously rather than in sequential distinct stages.✓
- 4Erosion proceeds at a completely uniform rate regardless of structural uplift.
Correct answer
Uplift and erosion occur simultaneously rather than in sequential distinct stages.
