Cavities and effective pressure between abrading clasts and the bedrock

The mechanical configuration of cavities associated with clasts is discussed, and how this affects the water pressure underneath the clast. The range of permissible water pressure is determined by flow parallel to the bed rather than by flow towards the bed. The actual pressure is controlled by hydr...
