AI overview
A mesa is an isolated hill or ridge with a flat top and steep sides that rises distinctly above the surrounding landscape, typically formed when a hard rock layer caps softer sedimentary rocks underneath. Mesas are geographically significant features found around the world and are commonly studied in geology and geography as examples of how different rock layers resist erosion at different rates.
