Alluvial
type: Class
subclass of: SedimentFormation
comment: The process of depositing soil or sediments by a river or other running water. [Wikipedia]

Canyon
type: Class
subclass of: FluvialLandform
comment: A canyon, or gorge, is a deep valley between cliffs often carved from the landscape by a river. Most canyons were formed by a process of long-time erosion from a plateau level. [Wikipedia]

Catchment
type: Class
subclass of: Watershed
comment: A catchment, or drainage basin, is an extent of land where water from precipitation drains into a body of water [Wikipedia]

KarstLandform
type: Class
subclass of: Landform
subclass of: Restriction
  on property: hasPhenomena
  some values from: Karst
comment: Karst topography is a landscape shaped by the dissolution of a layer or layers of soluble bedrock, usually carbonate rock such as limestone or dolomite. [Wikipedia]

Trench
type: Class
subclass of: Canyon
comment: A trench is a type of excavation or depression in the ground. Trenches are generally defined by being deeper than they are wide (as opposed to a wider gully or ditch), and by being narrow compared to their length (as opposed to a simple hole). Trenches are a natural feature in many landscapes. Some are created by rivers in flow (which may have long since fallen dry), others are features created by geological movement, such as oceanic trenches. The latter form is relatively deep, linear and narrow, and is formed by plate subduction. [Wikipedia]

Valley
type: Class
subclass of: FluvialLandform
comment: A valley (also called a vale, dale, glen or strath and near or in Appalachia, a draw) is a depression with predominant extent in one direction. [Wikipedia]

Watershed
type: Class
subclass of: LandRegion
equivalent class: DrainageBasin
comment: A watershed refers to a divide that separates one drainage area from another drainage area. However, in the US and Canada, the term is often used to mean a drainage basin or catchment area itself. [Wikipedia]
