Hi

Plateaus are types of landforms that possess a flat top and are elevated thousands of feet above a surrounding area. These landforms can be found in every continent on the globe. In some areas of the world, the plateaus are at such an elevated height that living conditions are harsh, while plateaus in other locations offer more benign environments suitable for agriculture.

Plateaus are level structures of land that usually rise about 1,500 feet (457 meters) above the surface of the ground. In order to be considered a plateau, it must possess at least one steep side. Some plateaus were formed as a result of upward movements of the Earth's crust.

Thanks
