Rock-surface temperatures of basalt in the Drakensberg alpine environment, Lesotho

Auteur :
GRAB, S.

Description :
Rock temperature data are presented for a variety of topographic localities at a high Drakensberg site. The aim is to investigate the spatio-temporal variations of surface rock temperatures in high Drakensberg basalt. The temperature results are then used to discuss possible implications for thermal stress fatigue and frost-induced weathering.
