This is extremely hazardous to the catchment although the salinity levels of the locations tested were quite minimal which reinforces the healthiness of the catchment. (Northern Central Catchment…

Therefore sub-aerial erosion is most visible on the top of the yellow sandstone cliffs because the grain size on top of the cliff is larger and therefore more unstable, this is because it is constantly exposed to the weathering and erosion by wind and rain. The general term for most of sub-aerial erosion is Mass…
