Abstract
AbstractChanges in micro‐topography, as a result of varying erosion rates, have been monitored on a calcarenite ridge on Grand Cayman Island, West Indies, using a traversing model of the micro‐erosion meter. Erosion takes place through the solution of a calcitic cement and ‘solutional disintegration’ results in a rapid change of micro‐relief. Where a protective crust is present, surface lowering is slower and also more uniform; thus the original relative relief is maintained.
