What are formed when cliffs of hard rock erode more slowly than the surrounding softer rock does?

When cliffs of hard rock erode more slowly than the surrounding softer rock, they can form features known as "rock outcrops" or "mesas." These elevated areas remain as resistant rock while the softer rock erodes away, leading to distinctive geological formations. Over time, this process can create dramatic landscapes with steep cliffs and flat-topped hills. Such formations are often seen in regions with varying rock types and erosion rates.

Sea cliffs: High vertical cliffs formed by the erosion caused by waves hitting the coastline. Sea caves: Caves formed by wave action eroding the rock along the coastline. Headlands: High points of land that jut out into the sea, formed by differential erosion from wave action. Sea stacks: Isolated columns or pillars of rock that are left standing in the sea after the collapse of a headland. Wave-cut platforms: Flat areas at the base of sea cliffs formed by wave erosion and deposition of eroded material.
