A valley and a trench are both elongated depressions in the Earth's surface. They typically form through geological processes such as erosion or tectonic activity. While valleys are often found on land and can be shaped by rivers or glaciers, trenches are usually associated with oceanic tectonic plate boundaries and are much deeper. Both features can affect local ecosystems and water drainage patterns.
