Yes, the modifiers are based on the terrain of the hex that the defender is in. The modifiers are applied to defense and offense, but there are 2 tables (One defender and one Attacker).

ie A heavy Infantry defending in a river has -8
A heavy infantry attacking a unit in a river has -4

Air units have a modifier of 0 for all terrain types

The tables are in the manual
