Structural highs (e.g. mountains) are created by uplift. The uplifted rocks are commonly heavily folded and faulted as a result of uplift.
A process that elevates the Earth's surface is called tectonic uplift. Some examples of tectonic uplift are crustal thickening, lithospheric flexure, orogenic uplift, and isostatic uplift.
The uplift is so slow that the stream will usually eventually cut down into the uplifted area to resume its course.
They can be, such as where a stream or river cuts into the ground, forming a gorge or canyon. However, cliffs may also be formed by uplift from tectonic forces.
A watershed is the landform that separates two catchment areas. Commonly a ridge or a spur. The form of the watershed may be affected by erosion, or more rarely, by tectonic land uplift / subsidence forces.

Uplift refers to the process of uplifting or raising something to a higher position or level. In the context of geology, uplift can also refer to the upward movement of the Earth's crust due to tectonic forces.
They can be, such as where a stream or river cuts into the ground, forming a gorge or canyon. However, cliffs may also be formed by uplift from tectonic forces.
A rejuvenated river is a river with a gradient that is raised by tectonic uplift.
A 'Rejuvenated' river is a river with a gradient that is raised by tectonic uplift.
Both sea level drop and tectonic uplift
A watershed is the landform that separates two catchment areas. Commonly a ridge or a spur. The form of the watershed may be affected by erosion, or more rarely, by tectonic land uplift / subsidence forces.
The earth's crust moves and the crust moves up When you have something like the rifting of a continent, the lithosphere heats up and causes it to rise. sinking of craton edges can be caused by things like tectonic loading.
