Anerosion
Definition
A rare form of evolutionary development or structural micro-relief characterized by the total absence or severe diminution of normal fluid or eolian erosion processes within a specific area. This static geological phenomenon is caused by the presence of extremely hard rocks or compact protective layers that block degradation and maintain the original landforms intact.
