Plateaus can be formed by a number of processes, including, upwelling of volcanic magma, extrusion of lava, and erosion by water and glaciers.Magma rises from the mantle causing the ground to swell upward, in this way large, flat areas of rock are uplifted.When plateaus are surrounded by mountains,then Intermontane plateau are formed.eg-The Tibean plateau.

What are the intermontane plateaus of south America?
The intermontane plateaus of South America primarily include the Altiplano, which is situated between the Andes mountains in Bolivia, Peru, and northern Chile. This high plateau is characterized by its elevated flat terrain, significant mineral resources, and unique ecosystems. The Altiplano is known for its harsh climate, with cold temperatures and limited precipitation, making it one of the highest inhabited regions in the world. Other notable intermontane areas include the Puna region and the Patagonia plateau, each with distinct geographical and cultural features.

What is intermontane plateaus and Piedmont plateaus?
Intermontane PlateausThe Intermontane Plateaus is one of eight U.S. Physiographic regions of the physical geography of the contiguous United States, located in the Western United States. The physiographic region is composed of intermontane plateaus and mountain ranges.Piedmont PlateausThe surface of the Piedmont Plateau rises in elevation from approximately 200 feet above sea level at its eastern margin to a general base level of 1000 feet above sea level in the west. Individual peaks may rise to over 2000 feet in western parts of the province. Relief varies across the province, a fact which has led to the delineation of two subregions.
