Observations on granite weathering phenomena, Mount Keinath, Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica

Rock varnish, erosional grooves, and well‐developed cavernous weathering phenomena occur in close association on a small biotite‐monzogranite nunatak in the Northern Foothills region, Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica. The grooves, similar in appearance to the ‘rinnenkarren’ described in the karst...
