| Definitionskos:definition | A generally elongated and planar feature consisting of an upper planar surface, and relatively steeper descending slope. The planar surface is bounded on one side by a steeper ascending slope (modified from IHO, 2019). A TERRACE is not closed-contoured like a PLATEAU, and its lower-gradient surface can be mapped as a PLATFORM. Cf "terrace" in Harris et al., (2014). |
