Field-validated imaging of decadal and seasonal changes in permafrost bedrock using quantitative electrical resistivity tomography (Zugspitze, Germany/Austria) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ongoing permafrost degradation in alpine regions requires monitoring methods that accurately decipher spatial and temporal dynamics. Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is widely applied in bedrock permafrost, yet its outputs are often interpreted ...

How ice apron loss and permafrost degradation promoted the Platteikogel rock slope failure: a thermo-mechanical reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
The Alpine cryosphere changes at unprecedented speed, affecting the thermal, hydrological, and mechanical state and behaviour of rock slopes. While numerous studies investigated singular drivers for progressive rock slope failures, the knowledge of hydro-

Massive permafrost rock slide under a warming polythermal glacier deciphered through mechanical modeling (Bliggspitze, Austria) [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Recent studies have brought to light large amounts of evidence for enhanced rock slope failure from degrading permafrost rock walls. These failures have previously been thought to be subaerial and triggered by thermal heat propagation from rising air ...

Landslide Topography of the Sumikawa Landslide

open access: yesLandslides, 1998
A landslide occurred at Sumikawa hot-spa in Kazuno City, Akita Prefecture on May 11, 1997. The landslide destroyed 9 houses of Sumikawa hotspa and the debris avalanche changed from landslide hit Akakawa hotspa and national road No.341. Since the Kazuno city office issued the refuge advice, the human damage was not generated.This study based on field ...

Decadal in situ hydrological observations and empirical modeling of pressure head in a high-alpine, fractured calcareous rock slope [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
In peri- and paraglacial regions, water plays a critical role in the hydrological cycle and slope stability. However, hydrological models often overlook water infiltration into bedrock due to limited knowledge of groundwater dynamics at high elevations ...

Quantitative landslide susceptibility assessment of the Waikato region using GIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Areas that have experienced landslide events in the past and the conditioning factors present at these sites can be used to identify areas of the same or similar susceptibility.

The July 1997 Landslide Disaster at Harubun, Sasebo, Japan [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Japan is a country of many geological hazards, including volcanic activity, earthquakes, and landslides. Of these, landslides triggered by heavy rainfall tend to occur during the yearly rainy season from early June through the middle of July. Sasebo City,

An approach for real-time monitoring of hydrological risk hotspots during extreme rainfall events

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Real-time monitoring of hydrological risk hotspots during extreme rainfall events is limited by certain challenges. Here, we introduce a new approach for tracking such hotspots across large areas in real time.
