I can think of four things that cause sudden changes to the earth's surface: Impact of a large object from space (such as Meteor Crater in Arizona), earthquake, volcanic eruption or explosion (Krakatoa is a prime example), and nuclear explosion (the atomic bomb caused very sudden and complete change to Hiroshima and Nagasaki). Every rain shower causes some change to the earth's surface, but I think you were asking about more dramatic examples.
