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

Earth 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 ...

Exponentially‐constrained Gaussian mixture model for quantifying vertical development of water‐conducting fracture zones in lithologically stratified mining roofs

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes an exponentially‐constrained Gaussian mixture model (EcGMM) to quantify vertical fracture heterogeneity in stratified roof strata. The model integrates a piecewise exponential decay term capturing global stress dissipation with Gaussian components representing localized fracture intensification at lithological interfaces.

Landscape, Livelihoods and Risk: Community Vulnerability to Landslides in Nepal [PDF]

, 2009
The occurrence of fatal landslides in Nepal is increasing with time, faster than the effects of monsoonal variations. Possible explanations for the trends observed include: land-use change, population growth, and the development of transport ...

Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests

Ecography, EarlyView.
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.

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

Earth 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 ...
