few advantage of Plateau
Answers
Plateaus present some advantages depending on how you view their role in an ecosystem. Plateaus often provide an isolated habitat in which species can evolve. This isolation from the height and often steep sides can prevent some predators from gaining access to prey allowing them to evolve independently of some predation pressures on their population (except for airborne predators). The plateaus structure can act as a collection basin for rainfall or melted snow providing a secure water source for plants and animals.
As many plateaus are covered in a erosion resistant caprock, the structure can remain stable from erosion processes that degrade softer rock strata resulting in a long lasting structure. Plateaus can cover a vast area which can support a genetically diverse ecosystem including humans. If humans are present and sufficient soil has developed, agriculture may be possible on the vast flat acreage. For humans plateaus can also serve as safe havens and strategic vantage points from enemies and allow for fairly secure societal development.
In regions that provide for tablelands where multiple smaller plateaus developed out of a larger plateau that has eroded over time, these smaller plateaus can be sufficiently isolated to be essentially islands in a sea of land. This isolation can lead to distinctive speciation in the evolution of species present similar to what Darwin observed in species on the Galapagos Islands during his research. All in all, plateaus can be special developing ecosystem forces besides being distinct geological structures.
