Applied Sciences, 2021 Through a study of glacial geomorphology and retrospective modeling of the stability of the slopes, it has been possible to reconstruct and know the mechanism of the formation of a large landslide induced by the retreat of the glacier corresponding to ...

Global patterns of treeline predictability and the gap between the forest and the treeline
Ecography, EarlyView.The alpine treeline is the highest elevation at which trees can grow, which is assumed to be controlled by temperature and globally predictable. However, many upper forest limits (UFLs) do not reach this elevation, due natural factors and human disturbance.

The traces of the last pleistocene glacial maximum in the eastern Kamnik-Savinja Alps
Dela, 2017 The area of the eastern Kamnik-Savinja Alps was glaciated in the time of the Last Pleistocene Glacial Maximum (LGM). The glacial landforms mentioned by the previous researchers and other landforms in the area were examined, gemorphologically mapped ...

Glacial geomorphology of the former Patagonian Ice Sheet (44–46 °S)
Journal of Maps, 2021 We map the glacial geomorphology of the former Patagonian Ice Sheet between 44°S and 46°S. Building on previous work, our map covers a ∼50,000 km2 region of west-central Patagonia.

Quaternary Science Advances, 2021 Early and early Middle Pleistocene glaciations in midcontinental USA are poorly understood relative to more recent Illinoian and Wisconsinan glaciations, largely because pre-Illinoian glacial landforms and deposits are eroded and buried.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Conceptual hydroclimatic pathway linking the concurrent negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) phase and weak La Niña conditions to extreme February rainfall and flash flooding in Northwest Africa. ABSTRACT The winter of 2025–2026 in Morocco exhibited a rapid hydroclimatic transition from prolonged drought to widespread flooding, representing an ...

The glacial geomorphology of western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica
Journal of Maps, 2020 Reconstructing the response of present-day ice sheets to past global climate change is important for constraining and refining the numerical models which forecast future contributions of these ice sheets to sea-level change.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Observed trends and EC‐Earth3 climate model projections demonstrate expressive changes in the Southeast Atlantic Hydrographic Basin, Brazil. Significant increases in rainfall intensity and dry spell duration in the present climate are followed by projected amplification of extreme precipitation under future warming, particularly under the SSP5‐8.5 ...

The cross-sectional characteristics of glacial valleys and their spatial variability [PDF]
, 2014 Glacial valleys are fundamental large-scale geomorphological landscape features that dissect mountain ranges. Their cross-sectional shape is recognised as distinct from fluvial valleys.
