Rates of rock surface lowering, Princess Elizabeth land, Eastern Antarctica
Abstract A series of micro‐erosion‐meter sites on different rock types and in differing wind regimes was established and re‐read after four years on two sites in the Larsemann and Vestfold Hills. These two oases in Eastern Antarctica are subjected to both wind abrasion and salt wedging. The measurem...
