The idea of cycle of erosion was figured by William Morris Davis, an American geomorphologist, towards the finish of the nineteenth century. It is an idea of a precise succession of evolutionary phases of fluvial erosion in which alleviation of the accessible landmass decreases with time to arrive at a late stage when the landscape turns into a peneplain. The cycle of erosion, as imagined by Davis, has its underlying stage when the landmass is quickly raised by inner earth powers, trailed by a long time of structural quiescence. When raised high above ocean level as a landmass, streams appear and erosion starts to work on the elevated mass which is progressively worn out nearly to a plain. The landmass may, at some later time, be restored and the cycle starts again and remainders of the prior cycle of erosion are safeguarded at new and more significant levels.
