I think you mean 'uniformitarianism'. According to the principle of uniformitarianism, the observable features of the world were produced by processes that are still observable today. For example, mountains were formed, not by a miracle or a catastrophe, but by the ordinary (very slow) geological processes of plate tectonics, which we can observe in the present.
The principle of uniformitarianism states that geologic processes that occur today are similar to those that have occurred in the past.
The main principle linked to the palaeoenvironment of the Earth (ie the Earths past) is called the principle of uniformitarianism: "The present is the key to the past" This means that all processes which occur on Earth at the present day, ie erosion, transportation, deposition, weathering, metamorphism etc. also occured at any point in the Earth's history in exactly the same way. Hope this helps :)
At the just past.
In Latin, most verbs have four principal parts: the first principle part is the present tense, the second is the perfect tense, the third is the supine, and the fourth is the past participle.
The principal parts of "have" are: have (present), has (present third person singular), had (past), having (present participle), and had (past participle).
The 'principle of uniformitarianism' basically means the present is the key to the past. The processes you can see happening on Earth now and the structures they produce were operating just the same in times past.
Principle of Uniformitarianism.
The principle of uniformitarianism is the principle that the answers to the past can be found in the present, meaning that everything is uniform in how it works. Such as a volcano erupting today would be the same as it would have been a billion years ago. Or rain would fall the same was today as it would in the time of the dinosaurs. It can be summarized as,"the present is the key to the past".
The principle of uniformitarianism states that the same geologic processes we see today have been at work throughout Earth's history, allowing us to interpret past geological events based on present-day observations. This idea is summarized by the phrase "the present is the key to the past."

Uniformitarianism is the principle in geology that states that the same natural processes that we observe today have occurred throughout Earth's history to shape its surface. This principle helps scientists interpret past geological events by assuming that the same processes acting in the present have been acting in a similar manner in the past.
uniformitarianism
The processes that are occurring in the present are the same processes that occurred in the past.
Uniformitarianism

This phrase is a simplified version of the principle of uniformitarianism, which states that present-day geologic processes can be used to understand past geological events. It suggests that the processes we observe today have been acting in the same manner for millions of years and can help us interpret the Earth's history.
