A cliff is generally at the edge of a mountain or some other rock formation and is of hard rock, trees, roots, et al. It is formed by a sharp edge to a relative flat area and a long nearly vertical drop.
A dune is where the wind has blown sand or other small particles into small hills. They form attractive beach scenes along the coastline and also appear in sandy deserts. Dunes have no sharp edges nor long, nearly vertical drop-offs.
A barchan dune has a crescent shape with horns pointing downwind and forms in areas with limited sand, while a parabolic dune has a U-shape with the horns pointing upwind and forms in areas with abundant sand. Additionally, barchan dunes are individual and migrate due to wind direction, while parabolic dunes are stationary and often found in coastal regions.
A crag is a rugged outcrop or a steep rock face on a mountain, often used for rock climbing. A cliff is a steep rock face or slope, typically found near a body of water or at the edge of a plateau. Cliffs are usually taller and more vertical than crags.
A canyon is a deep valley with steep sides typically carved by a river over time, while a cliff is a vertical or nearly vertical rock face. Canyons are larger landforms that can stretch for miles, while cliffs are smaller, often found along coastlines or mountain edges.
A dune grows by accumulating sand through wind action. As wind blows sand particles to the dune's windward side, they pile up and build the dune's height. Over time, this process of sand deposition on the windward side helps the dune grow taller and wider.
The sand dune became a sand monster because of a continuous wind raping across the desert.
