Pothole Landforms
Potholes can form when water collects on a layer of exposed rock. Windblown particles, flowing water from rain, freezing and thawing can cause slight erosion of the surface. When water is present, bacteria, fungi and algae play a greater role in eroding rock

Potholes What, Causes A Level Geography Revision
Apparently, during this time, there were potholes shaped when the ice liquefied, as waterways streamed underneath the ice and on its surface. In some cases, these surface waterways plunged down a chasm, and disintegrated the bedrock underneath, framing potholes on the most remote spots, the glacier scholars’ guarantee.

PILLARS, POLYSTRATE FORMATIONS, AND POTHOLES
2017-9-8 Before exposure, potholes are usually filled with drift, consisting of sand, clay, and gravel. In some rocks potholes may contain sandstone. The mechanism outlined above for the formation of drift pillars also explains potholes, and a resemblance between the pillars and the contents of potholes would support the proposed theory.

Describe the formation of a gorge. MyTutor
A gorge is formed as a result of a change in rock type at a waterfall. At the base of a waterwall the pressure and hydraulic action of the falling water causes the softer rock which is underneath to erode forming a plunge pool.Over time this continues to erode backwards, undercutting the harder rock which is on the surface. Eventually the over hang is so great that the hard rock can no longer ...
