Abstract

AbstractIt is suggested that the evolution of morphology on a hard rock surface should be studied at a micro‐scale. At this scale there is a reasonable chance of establishing the relationship between the operation of process events and the progression of erosion rates. Micro‐erosion meters and micro‐weighed weight‐loss tablets make this possible. However, installation and disturbance factors make it difficult to approach the theoretical limits of the techniques and at the present stage only seasonal differences in erosion rates can be identified with any real certainty. Measurements on a smaller time scale of about one month have, however, been gained but these results should be interpreted with caution in the light of the problems involved.
