जल प्रपात अथवा झरना एक प्रमुख प्रवाही जल कृत अपरदनात्मक स्थलरुप हैं और जलस्रोत हैं। प्राकृतिक झरने कई नदियों के उद्गम हैं। भारत का सबसे ऊंचा जलप्रपात = महात्मा गांधी जलप्रपात उंचाई =293 मीटर अन्य नाम = जोग, गरसोपा नदी = शबरती नदी कर्नाटक

    *  सबसे ऊचा ( HIGHEST WATERFAL List of waterfalls by type

An example of an ephemeral waterfall. This one, when flowing, feeds into the Chagrin River (Ohio).

• Ledge waterfall: Water descends vertically over a vertical cliff, maintaining partial contact with the bedrock.^[12] (e.g. Niagara Falls)
  • Block/Sheet: Water descends from a relatively wide stream or river.^[5][12]
  • Classical: Ledge waterfalls where fall height is nearly equal to stream width, forming a vertical square shape.^[5]
  • Curtain: Ledge waterfalls which descend over a height larger than the width of falling water stream.^[5]
• Plunge: Fast-moving water descends vertically, losing complete contact with the bedrock surface.^[12] The contact is typically lost due to horizontal velocity of the water before it falls. It always starts from a narrow stream. (e.g. Angel Falls)
  • Punchbowl: Water descends in a constricted form and then spreads out in a wider pool.^[12] (e.g. Punch Bowl Falls)
• Horsetail: Descending water maintains contact with bedrock most of the time.^[12] (e.g. Jog Falls)
  • Slide: Water glides down maintaining continuous contact.^[12]
  • Ribbon: Water descends over a long narrow strip.^[12]
  • Chute: A large quantity of water forced through a narrow, vertical passage.^[12]
  • Fan: Water spreads horizontally as it descends while remaining in contact with bedrock (e.g. Powerscourt Waterfall).^[12]
• Cascade: Water descends a series of rock steps.^[5][12] (e.g. Numa Falls)
• Tiered/Multi-step/Staircase: A series of waterfalls one after another of roughly the same size each with its own sunken plunge pool.^[12] (e.g. Ebor Falls)
• Cataract: A large, powerful waterfall.^[12] (e.g. Victoria Falls)
• Segmented: Distinctly separate flows of water form as it descends.^[12]
• Frozen: Any waterfall which has some element of ice or snow.^[12]
• Moulin: A moulin is a waterfall in a glacier
