Analysis of Potholes at Lata Chenai,Jeli District,Kelantan

The most important erosional features associated with knick points are potholes along Terang River at Lata Chenai, Jeli District. The process of abrasion of the bedrock from erosive currents inside the potholes, and vibration of pebbles and stones by the water, that gradually incised the holes deepe...
