DOI: 10.1007/s10064-018-1334-2
Abstract: Cliffs located along the Isotake coast, Shimane, Japan, are characterized by the development of indents without rockfalls and by the occurrence of rockfalls without indents—even though these cliffs have the same geology. An analytical method was developed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2016.12.008
Abstract: Abstract Shiny grooved rock surfaces found in archaeological sites are common across west Texas and the Southwest (U.S.). In most cases they are cursorily described, with very little in terms of detailed characterization and analysis.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2017.04.012
Abstract: This study presents the comparison of morphometry of karren features developed on two rock surfaces located side by side having different exposure times. Cosmogenic 36Cl analyses were used to determine the age of a rock… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/07362994.2019.1636659
Abstract: Abstract A stochastic differential equation (SDE) is derived and examined for approximately modeling the breaking down of rock surfaces through random processes. The rock surfaces include, for example, surfaces of historical monuments, gravestones, or natural… read more here.

Tales from the tomb: the microbial ecology of exposed rock surfaces
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Environmental Microbiology"
DOI: 10.1111/1462-2920.14024
Abstract: Although a broad diversity of eukaryotic and bacterial taxa reside on rock surfaces where they can influence the weathering of rocks and minerals, these communities and their contributions to mineral weathering remain poorly resolved. To… read more here.
