What happens to land elevation as you move inland?
As you move inland from the coast, land elevation tends to increase.

Therefore, land elevation generally rises as you move away from the coast.

How do index contours let you know if the land you are viewing are increasing or decreasing?
Each index contour has an elevation associated with it. When you look at 2 contours, one will have a higher corresponding elevation. As you go from the lower elevation to the higher elevation, you know that the land is increasing in the direction toward the higher elevation. From the higher to the lower elevation, the land is decreasing (sloping downward, decreasing in elevation).
Changes in elevation that occur over a given area or land?
Topography refers to the changes in elevation that occur over a given area or land. It includes features such as hills, valleys, mountains, and other landforms that determine the shape of the terrain. Topographic maps display these elevation changes through contour lines and can provide valuable information for various applications such as urban planning, engineering, and environmental assessments.
