How to use "Scarp" in context?
Scarp means a steeply sloping surface, either on land or underwater. Scarping can also refer to the process of creating a scarp. This is done by breaking the surface of the earth or water with a forceful action. This action can be caused by the weight of a person, a landslide, an earthquake, or even the wind. The breaking of the surface creates jagged edges that give the surface a scarp-like appearance.
