Rock glaciers—ice-rich creeping landforms typical of permafrost mountain ranges—can
develop an anomalous landslide-like behaviour called destabilisation. This behaviour is …

We report the first glacial chronology of Mt. Karanfil (3059 m above sea level; asl), a small
mountain in the south-central Taurus Range in Turkey. Well-preserved terminal and lateral …

The aim of this work is to study the process of transformation of debris-free mountain glaciers
into debris-covered glaciers and rock glaciers, and to examine the factors driving diverging …

The rock glaciers of the Swiss National Park were the first in the world where in-situ
measurements of surface displacement were undertaken, starting with the pioneering work …

Atmospheric warming and circulation reorganization at the end of the last ice age represent
the most important climate change of the last 100,000 years and provide an opportunity to …

Debris-covered ice is widespread in mountain regions with debris an important control on
surface ice melt and glacier retreat. Quantifying debris cover extent and its evolution through …

Rock glaciers are an integral part of the periglacial environment. At the regional scale in the
Greater Caucasus, there have been no comprehensive systematic efforts to assess the …

The objective of this work is to chronologically establish the origin of the different glacial and
rock glacier complex landforms deposited by Héðinsdalsjökull glacier (65° 39′ N, 18° 55 …

Abstract During the Late Pleistocene, the main mountain ranges of the Iberian Peninsula
were covered by small icefields and cirque and alpine glaciers. The deglaciation triggered …

Viscous flow features in perennially frozen talus/debris called rock glaciers are being
systematically inventoried as part of global climate-related monitoring of mountain …
