Waterfall Types

Ribbon Falls: The height of a ribbon-type waterfall is greater than the width of its crest.
Classical Falls: The height and crest are almost equal.
Curtain Falls:  The height is smaller than the crest width.
Cascade Falls: The downpour is staggered into a series of steps causing water to "cascade".
