Waterfalls
From gentle trickles to thunderous roars, waterfalls deliver a truly awe-inspiring glimpse into nature's majesty. Waterfalls captivate us and testify to the breathtaking power of nature. Formed by water coursing over soft rock surfaces, waterfalls result from a unique combination of erosion processes occurring above and below the water level. This water flow eventually meets up with hard bedrock, making an edge that sharpens into cascades. Once this is achieved, gravity creates waterfalls that plummet far below into pools. These stunning watery displays are often seen along fall lines—imaginary paths formed as water descends from upland environments to lower lands along riversides.
