Geological Features

Grand Canyon

This feature was formed over many years of erosion and weathering. Also from the course of the Colorado River itself, volcanos, continental drift, and from plates moving, far beneath Earth’s surface. This formation is found in Arizona. This feature is related to Plate Tectonics, because of all the layers that layered up over the years from the lithosphere plates moving.

Mount St. Helen’s

This feature was formed by eruptions from this volcano, also from erosion and weathering. Other ways that this feature could have been formed is from Continental Drift. This mountain is located in Washington state. This formation is related to Plate Tectonics, because the plates below Earth’s surface move, causing volcanos, changing the mountain every time.

Rio Grande

This feature was formed by erosion, from the river flowing fast, also there is a lot of sediment, as seen in the picture, that was carried by the river, which formed the Rio Grande, as it looks now. The Rio Grande starts in Colorado and ends in New Mexico. This formation is related to Plate Tectonics, because when the plates move in a lithospheric movement, the ground also moves a little bit and it changes the formations in and around the river.
