Volcanic cones are among the simplest volcanic landforms. The largest form in areas of karst landforms whose rocks erode easily. Natural geographical features consist of landforms and ecosystems. The scientific study of landforms is known as geomorphology. This is a list of submarine topographical features, oceanic landforms and topographic elements. Cliffs are formed as erosion landforms by the processes of weathering and erosion. Arroyos can be natural fluvial landforms or constructed flood control channels. Limestone is partially soluble, especially in acid, and therefore forms many erosional landforms. Alluvial deposits are unconsolidated detrital materials transformed from higher landforms. The glacial origin of some landforms has been questioned. Physical geography is the study of earth's seasons, climate, atmosphere, soil, streams, landforms, and oceans. Hillocks and plateaus represent the major landforms of the Chambal valley. Some of the volcanic landforms appear to be unique to the planet. Water can also erode mountains and other landforms down into plateaus. There are many other natural landforms such as beaches and waterfalls.
