Disposition Model for Permafrost Degradation in Mountainous Regions
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Permafrost is a widespread thermal phenomenon in Arctic and high mountain regions that, in combination with steep terrain, exerts a key control on slope stability. Its degradation in response to climatic warming can modify the likelihood and timing of rockfall, debris flow and related mass movements. Robust information on the current state and

Massive sediment pulses triggered by a multi-stage 130 000 m3 alpine cliff fall (Hochvogel, DE–AT) [PDF]
Earth Surface DynamicsMassive sediment pulses in catchments are a key alpine multi-risk component. Substantial sediment redistribution in alpine catchments frequently causes flooding, river erosion, and landsliding and affects infrastructure such as dam reservoirs as well as ...

Numerous landslides and landslide restorations – an example [PDF]
Acta Montanistica Slovaca, 2012 Numerous landslides appeared in a smaller area of north-western Croatia during a short span of time ; in a large number of cases these landslides infringed upon local roads, public objects and other landscape. As is well known, the phenomenon of multiple landslides is connected to specific hydrometeorological features of the period, but also with ...

Prediction of the evolution of a large landslide under different climate scenarios: a physics-based model applied to the Ruinon Landslide (Italian Alps) [PDF]
, 2023 Large slope instability processes result from a complex interaction among different geological and climatic factors. Possible variations in meteorological conditions connected to climate change may directly influence their evolution.

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

The relationship between equatorial wave interaction and heavy rainfall in Southeast Asia
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This study examines the statistical relationship between co‐occurring equatorial waves and heavy rainfall in Southeast Asia. Heavy rainfall is more closely related to combined wave activity than to individual waves in many regions of Southeast Asia. The figure shows GPM–IMERG rainfall (shading) and ERA5 850‐hPa winds (vectors) composited on days when ...
