2 Waterfall & Plunge Pool

3 Formation of Waterfall 1. More erosion on less erosion while less erosion on resistant rock/differential erosion 2. erosion in terms of hydraulic action/vertical erosion is serious 3. vertical descent of water/waterfall is formed 4. the base of the waterfall is undercut by eddy movement 5. the base is widened and deepened, forming plunge pool

4 A resistant rock layer is dipping upstream

5 A vertical resistant rock layer

6 Bride Pool WATERFALL PLUNGE POOL conglomerate, being more resistant slate, being less resistant

7 Bride’s Pool A lot of rock debris are found along the river bed

8 Mirror Pool COOL!

9 Hydraulic action Do you want to try?
