Geological features influence one another unevenly.
Some structures affect only local conditions.
Others influence entire regions.
Some influence persists for millions of years.
This paper evaluates Earth as a landscape of influence gradients extending across structures, basins, margins, transitions, and corridors.
Influence is not distributed evenly across Earth.
Some regions function as major participants in Earth-system organization.
The landscape of influence may therefore differ substantially from the landscape of physical geography.
