Landforms are formed via a number of different processes.

Tectonic activity: mountains and volcanoes including volcanic islands, rifts, sea floor, etc.

Erosion: e.g. wave action creating coastal landforms like bays, sea cliffs, wave-cut platforms, caves, stacks, etc.

Deposition: beaches, deltas, sandbars, etc.

And many more, but basically by tectonic activity, erosion, and deposition, usually in various combinations, like a mesa formed by tectonic activity uplifting the land and erosion of the newly exposed strata shaping it.

There are also biological activities, like the creation of coral reefs.

Landforms can be created by several ways. Landforms can be created by earth movements due to plate tectonics (such as fold mountains, rift valleys, and volcanoes). They can be created by physical or chemical decomposition of rock through weathering. They can be formed from the removal of eroded materials by wind, and water.
