Butte Formation

Butte Formation is a geomorphological process model that explains the development of isolated, flat-topped, steep-sided landforms through differential erosion of horizontally layered sedimentary rocks, distinguishing it from broader erosional landform theories by its specific focus on the structural and stratigraphic controls producing buttes in arid and semi-arid environments.
