Fire-induced rock spalling as a mechanism of weathering responsible for flared slope and inselberg development

Fire is an important mechanism of physical weathering responsible for the formation of overhanging flared slopes around the margins of steep-sided inselbergs. Fire-spalling erodes landscapes laterally rather than vertically and produces significant volumes of new sediment.
