Earth’s Dynamic Surface What processes change Earth’s surface? Before You Read Before you read the chapter, think about what you know about Earth’s surface. Record three things that you already know about Earth’s surface in the first column. Then write three things that you would like to learn about in the second column. Complete the final column of the chart when you have finished this chapter.
