             abstract = "The Juqueriquer{\^e} River channel was formed in a Precambrian 
                         crystalline basement. The lithological association is largely 
                         composed of ancient metamorphic and igneous rocks, with several 
                         overlapping tectonic episodes. Field surveys along the upper and 
                         middle course allowed for cataloguing a wide variety of fluvial 
                         erosion features. A sizable amount of morphological features have 
                         been sculpted on different types of rocks, including furrows, 
                         potholes, percussion marks, polishing and smoothing boulders as 
                         the most representative. The sizes and shapes of these scour marks 
                         are also diverse, and their study has provided important results 
                         for better understanding the erosive processes. Given their wide 
                         variety, the erosive morphological features offer an excellent 
                         opportunity to explore the mechanisms of fluvial erosion and 
                         evaluate their effective capacity to remove cobbles and boulders 
                         in bedrock river systems.",
