Aeolian processes
Aeolian processes, also spelled eolian or æolian, pertain to wind activity in the study of geology and weather and specifically to the wind's ability to shape the surface of the Earth (or other planets).

Ball's Pyramid
Ball's Pyramid is an erosional remnant of a shield volcano and caldera that formed about 6.4 million years ago.

Clay
Clay is a finely-grained natural rock or soil material that combines one or more clay minerals with possible traces of quartz (SiO2), metal oxides (Al2O3, MgO etc.) and organic matter.

Erosion
In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes (such as water flow or wind) that remove soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transport it to another location (not to be confused with weathering which involves no movement).

Geology
Geology (from the Ancient Greek γῆ, gē, i.e. "earth" and -λoγία, -logia, i.e. "study of, discourse") is an earth science concerned with the solid Earth, the rocks of which it is composed, and the processes by which they change over time.

Granite
Granite is a common type of felsic intrusive igneous rock that is granular and phaneritic in texture.

Gravity
Gravity, or gravitation, is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass or energy—including planets, stars, galaxies, and even light—are brought toward (or gravitate toward) one another.

Headland
A headland (or simply head) is a coastal landform, a point of land usually high and often with a sheer drop, that extends into a body of water.

Hydraulic action
Hydraulic action is the erosion that occurs when the motion of water against a rock surface produces mechanical weathering.

Landform
A landform is a natural feature of the solid surface of the Earth or other planetary body.

Limestone
Limestone is a sedimentary rock, composed mainly of skeletal fragments of marine organisms such as coral, forams and molluscs.

Natural arch
A natural arch, natural bridge, or (less commonly) rock arch is a natural rock formation where an arch has formed with an opening underneath.

Rock climbing
Rock climbing is an activity in which participants climb up, down or across natural rock formations or artificial rock walls.

Seabird
Seabirds (also known as marine birds) are birds that are adapted to life within the marine environment.

Sedimentary rock
Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of that material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.

Slump (geology)
A slump is a form of mass wasting that occurs when a coherent mass of loosely consolidated materials or rock layers moves a short distance down a slope.

Subaerial
In natural science, subaerial (literally "under the air"), has been used since 1833, in the Merriam-Webster dictionary.

Volcanic rock
Volcanic rock (often shortened to volcanics in scientific contexts) is a rock formed from magma erupted from a volcano.
