transverse valley

Mislim da je u ovom slučaju puni traženi termin "poprečna probojnica".

Probojnica - mjesto gdje je tekućica probila svoje korito, obično u mekšim stijenama između dviju planina.

"Geologically transverse valleys frequently form a water gap where, during the course of earth history, the erosion of a river or large stream cuts a path through a mountain or hill range that stands tectonically at right angles to it."

Peer comment(s):

agree Daryo : ... u mekšim stijenama grebena između dva kraška polja, "popreko kroz planinu" ne "između dviju planina"
