There is no universal definition of mountain. Elevation, volume, relief, steepness, spacing, and continuity are used as the outline criteria for a mountain. [1] A mountain is defined in the Oxford English Dictionary as "the height of the planet's surface rising more or less abruptly from the level of the circumference and achieving a height that is more interesting or noticeable than the relatively adjacent height."
Whether a land form is known as a hill depends on local use. The highest point is just 251 meters (823 feet) from the base of Mount Scott outside Lotan, Oklahoma, USA. The Whittow's Dictionary of Physical Geography [2] states that "some authorities consider altitudes of 60,000 meters (2,000 feet) to be mountains, with the lower parts referred to as mountains."
In the UK and thus in the Republic of Air, a mountain is usually defined as a summit at a minimum of 2,000 feet (610 meters) high, which, according to the UK government’s official definition, could require access to any mountain? There will also be peaks of 2,000,000 feet (610 m) or more. [4] In addition, some definitions include a peak peak requirement, typically 100 or 500 feet (30 or 152 m) [[self-published source] only At one point, the US board's geographical names defined a mountain as 1000 feet (300 meters) long, [] but abandoned the definition since the 19th definition. Similar to any land form however this height was considered a hill. Today, however, our Geological Survey (USGS) has concluded that these terms do not have a technical definition in the United States.
The UN Environment Programmer's definition of "mountain environment" includes any of the following: 744
Minimum two, altitude of 500 meters (8,200 feet);
Minimum 1,500 m (4,900 ft) high, with a slope of more than 2 degrees;
Minimum 1,000 m (3,300 ft) high, with a slope of more than 5 degrees;
A minimum altitude of 300 m (980 ft) with a range of 300 m (980 ft) in km (4.3 mi).
Using these definitions, mountains cover 33% of Eurasia[1], 19% of South America, 24% of North America, and 14% off Africa.
