What makes a landscape a landscape?
A landscape incorporates all of the visible physical features of an area of land. This would include geological formation, human elements, flora and fauna, and other elements such as weather. The term "landscape," however, is used in various ways such as "cultural landscape" or "economic landscape." In general, this use means to interpret all of the features of that particular subject. For example, when discussing the economic landscape, one would expect to see explanations of all areas of an economy such as financial systems, currency value, trade, etc.

What erodes more water or glaciers?
While glaciers would move more earth, free flowing water is more of a constant, moving in places where glaciers do not form (i.e. Underground caverns and equatorial latitudes).

Historically, water has eroded more features (the grand canyon) than has glaciers.
