Mesa-and-scarp topography is most closely associated with "erosion".
Mesa implies table and scarp implies steep, pretty much vertical precipices. This landscape is ordinarily connected with flat sedimentary strata – flaunted unmistakably in this dry district since it does not have a consistent front of trees and vegetation. Such strata perpetually offer distinctive degrees of protection from weathering and erosion, thus sudden changes in incline edge are normal for this territory.
