“…Previous work in southern Zimbabwe has supported the suggestion that landscape development is due to differential weathering and erosion of rocks of varying resistance and to the long lasting prevalence of weathering-limited conditions and pronounced divergent weathering (Römer, 2005(Römer, , 2007. This study examines further the hypothesis that scarp slopes in this area are controlled by lithology and structure.…”

“…The relatively simple process-response model uses a mass transport continuity equation applied over geological times (Römer, 2007). The model is written in C++ and consists of a grid with fixed plan coordinates and variable elevations.…”

“…Na literatura geomorfológica, muitos trabalhos têm abordado os aspectos genéticos acerca das formas que caracterizam a morfologia granítica. Especifi camente sobre relevos associados a meteorização/exumação, pode-se destacar Oberlander (1972), Romer (2007), Twidale (2002), Twidale e Romani (1994), Alvarez (1999), Migón (2006), Romaní e Temiño (2004), Matmon et al, (2013), Kajdasa et al, (2017).…”

“…Comumente inselbergues apresentam escarpas íngremes, fato que impossibilita a permanência da alteração superfi cial resultando no afl oramento contínuo do embasamento. A ocorrência de tais campos é comum em climas áridos e semiáridos (MATMON et al, 2013), mas sua origem está associada a sistemas erosivos associados ao ambiente tropical e subtropical (ROMER, 2007), onde o intemperismo profundo originou espessos regolitos (GOUDIE, 2004) cujo a remoção ocorrerá em climas mais secos (MATMON et al, 2013).…”
