Question

Is escarpment and steep slope same in topography

Answer 1

High (or steep) gradients occur in areas where there is a large change in elevation over a short distance. ... On a topographic map the amount of elevation change is related to the number of contour lines. Using the same contour interval, the more contour lines over the same distance indicates a steeper slope.

Answer 2

Escarpment is having gentle slope nd steep slope on the two sides of same mountain.
