New research has unveiled that enormous waves within Earth's mantle are instrumental in forming high plateaus and dramatic cliff formations. This study explores how the rifting of continents triggers these mantle waves, which then propagate inward and lead to the rise of plateaus. By analyzing escarpments formed during the breakup of Gondwana, scientists have established a connection between continental rifting and the development of these geological features, revealing a fascinating aspect of Earth's dynamic processes.
