A butte is also a flat-topped hill with steep sides, though smaller in area than a mesa. Definitions of the surface areas of mesas and buttes vary. One source states that a mesa has a surface area of less than 4 square miles (10 square kilometers), while a butte has a surface area less than 11,250 square feet (1,000 square meters). Another source states that the surface area of a mesa is larger than 1 square mile (2.59 square kilometers); the surface area of a butte is smaller than that dimension. Some simply define a mesa as a landform that is wider than it is high and a butte as one that is higher than it is wide.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.scienceclarified.com\/landforms\/Faults-to-Mountains\/Mesa-and-Butte.html\">Science  Clarified<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There&#8217;s your science factoid for the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wanted contrast and intensity.
