Abstract
HAS the cause of fluted weathering, I would like to ask, ever been determined? It differs widely from all other forms of weathering that I have seen or read of The long, smooth, parallel grooves are met with sometimes on the two sides of a block of limestone when such lies so that there are roof-like surfaces uppermost. On these two sides they frequently correspond at the ridge and follow a direct course downwards unless compelled to curve round some projecting boss.
