1.-The English Channel.(Only found one, sorry)
2.-Aletsch glacier, Switzerland. Mouth of the glacier Schlatenkees near InnergschlöÃ, Austria.
3.-A large piece of ice that has broken off from a snow-formed glacier or ice shelf and is floating in open water.
4.-In geography, an oasis is an isolated area of vegetation in a desert, typically surrounding a spring or similar water source. For example, the oases of Awjila, Ghadames and Kufra, situated in modern-day Libya, have at various times been vital to both North-South and East-West trade in the Sahara desert.
5.-Florida and Yucatan (Mexico)
6.-Canterbury Plains, New Zealand. Great Plains, USA.
7.-Monte Roraima (Brazil-Guyana-Venezuela) Chang Tang of Tibet
8.-Strait of Dover, between England and France, which connects the North Sea with the English Channel. The Strait of Gibraltar, the only natural passage between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
9.-Everglades, Okefenokee Swamp.

A channel - The Panama Channel. A glacier - Aletsch in Switzerland. Iceberg - big chunks of ice that break off of the Northern Ice Shelf or Antarctica. They also come from Greenland. I'm sure Alaska and Canada have some. Oasis - a British band j/k it an area in a desert that's full of vegetation, usually around a spring of water. ex. the Baharia Oasis in Egypt. Peninsula - a piece of land that sticks out of the mainland and has water on three sides of it. ex. Florida. A plain - an area of vast flat land like the mid-west. Plateau - a chunk of land that flat on top but it raised above the rest of the surrounding land. Monte Roraima in Venezuela is one of those deals :)
