This paper reviews and analyses the past 20 years of change and variability of European
mountain permafrost in response to climate change based on time series of ground …

Mining operations generate large amounts of wastes which are usually stored into large-
scale storage facilities which pose major environmental concerns and must be properly …

Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is a minimally invasive geophysical method that
produces a model of subsurface resistivity from a large number of electrical resistance …

The characterisation of the subsurface of a landslide is a critical step in developing ground
models that inform planned mitigation measures, remediation works or future early-warning …

The quantification of volumetric ice and water content in active rock glaciers is necessary to
estimate their role as water stores and contributors to runoff in dry mountain catchments. In …

Increasing water scarcity in the Central Andes due to ongoing climate change recently
caused a controversy and debate on the significance of permafrost occurrences for the …

Quantitative characterization of subsurface properties is critical for many environmental
applications and serves as the basis to simulate and better understand dynamic subsurface …

Precise information about the spatial distribution of hydraulic conductivity (K) in an aquifer is
essential for the reliable modeling of groundwater flow and transport processes. In this …

Coarse blocks are an abundant surface cover in mountainous permafrost landscapes. In this
coarse blocky layer, air convection occurs and has a significant influence on the ground …

The degradation of mountain permafrost is well documented at many Alpine sites.
Geophysical techniques have been intensively used to monitor these sites, since permafrost …
