Waterfalls
A waterfall is a named point or reach where a river or stream descends abruptly over a vertical face, steep rock step, or sequence of drops. Its form may reflect resistant rock layers, faulting, glacial hanging valleys, lava flows, river incision, or changing channel geometry. The category includes single drops and cascades recognized as one feature but does not imply perennial flow or a particular height.
Islands
An island is a discrete area of land completely surrounded by water, occurring in oceans, lakes, rivers, wetlands, or reservoirs. Islands can originate through volcanism, tectonic uplift, erosion, sediment deposition, reef growth, glacial processes, or the isolation of former mainland terrain. The category spans very different scales and does not by itself establish remoteness, habitation, geology, or ecological uniqueness.
