No. It is a geological feature. The term "geological event" is usually reserved for these items:
- Earthquakes
- Volcanic eruptions
- Very major Landslides
- Comet or Meteor impacts
Geological events are something that effects at a minimum a large region (thousands of square miles) and has a significant impact on the local climate, terrain, flora, and/or fauna. Some would not classify the last example above as a geological event, since it is something that happens TO the earth, rather than the earth itself changing. By earth, I mean the landmass, not the biosphere.
