The role of rock surface hardness and internal moisture in tafoni development in sandstone

TL;DR: In this article, electric resistivity tomography (ERT) has been used to map moisture distribution within inner walls of tafoni developed in sandstone, and an Equotip device used to measure rock surface hardness as a proxy measure of the degree of weathering and case hardening.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geoelectric investigations into sandstone moisture regimes: Implications for rock weathering and the deterioration of San Rock Art in the Golden Gate Reserve, South Africa

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used electric resistivity tomography (ERT) and supportive methods for measuring surface moisture (Protimeter) and surface hardness (Equotip) to assess the extent of weathering within a rock outcrop.
Journal ArticleDOI

The writing's in the wall: A review of new preliminary applications of electrical resistivity tomography within archaeology

TL;DR: In this paper, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) was used as a surveying tool within archaeology, but a new high-resolution technique that accurately traces the movement of moisture in building materials could provide a vital tool for understanding the decay of many archaeological monuments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defining tafoni Re-examining terminological ambiguity for cavernous rock decay phenomena

TL;DR: The authors support using “ tafoni” (singular: “tafone”) as the non-scalar universal term—the form created by numerous processes involved in cavernous decay features—and strongly suggest researchers adopt the same vernacular in order to promote collaboration.
