Freeze-thaw weathering is an important surface process and the complex underlying
processes can be understood as an interplay between rock properties and its dynamic …

This paper reviews frost‐weathering studies in the last five years and proposes key
questions to be answered. New techniques have enabled us to monitor moisture contents …

The Periglacial Environment, Fourth Edition, is an authoritative overview of the world's cold,
non-glacial environments. First published in 1976 and subsequently revised in 1996 and …

Understanding the freezing pattern of pore water is the basis for revealing the mechanisms
of frost damage in porous rocks. We employed low-field nuclear magnetic resonance …

Earth's climate is warming and will continue to warm as the century progresses. High
mountains and high latitudes are experiencing the greatest warming of all regions on Earth …

Studies of rates, processes and modes of rock surface, and near-surface, deterioration, and
also hardening, are central to rock weathering and building stone research, conservation …

This work aims to predict the evolution in freezing processes due to climate change during
the 21st century and the potential damage to historic structures and archaeological remains …

This accessible and engaging text explores the relationship between philosophy, science
and physical geography. It addresses an imbalance that exists in opinion, teaching and to a …

Heritage preservation poses numerous difficulties, especially in emergency situations or
during budget cuts. In these contexts, having tools that facilitate efficient and rapid …

Widespread acceptance in science at-large notwithstanding, the ability of thermal stresses to
