Caring with forests: Human and more‐than‐human care in forest occupations in Germany
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Drawing on ongoing ethnographic and participatory action research within forest occupations in Germany, this paper develops the concept of ‘caring with forests’ to theorise the mutual, multidimensional relationships of care that emerge between humans and more‐than‐human beings in environmental protest settings.

Dynamics of Long-Runout Landslides: A Review
Applied SciencesLong-runout landslides usually cause a significant loss of life and property because of their hypermobility and immense energy to travel long distances at high velocities, attracting a global focus on the dynamics and mechanism of long-runout landslides.

Characterizations of landslides in the Puget Sound and Lake Washington
, 2018 Lake Washington and the Puget Sound are home to many conditions that allow for the generation of landslides. In this paper, I used high-resolution multibeam, seismic reflection, and chirp data to characterize three landslides: one in Juanita Bay, one ...

Modeled Subsidence of Permafrost Terrain 2025–2050: North‐Central Alaska
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A large fraction of the Alaska terrain is underlain by regolith that contains excess ice (ice that in volume exceeds the natural pore space). Possible loss of excess ice would lead to ground subsidence, which in turn would disturb and destabilize the ground surface.

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

Landslides in sensitive clays : from research to implementation
, 2017 Sensitive clays, when provoked by manmade or natural causes, have led to several landslide disasters throughout history. This has been reminded by the recent catastrophic landslides at e.g. St. Jude (2010), Lyngen (2010), Kattmarka (2009), Byneset (2012),

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 ...

Failure processes in submarine landslides: a geomorphological approach
, 2007 This thesis presents a novel technique for the quantitative characterisation of bathymetricdata sets. The technique integrates three main geomorphometric methods: morphometricattributes and their statistical analyses, feature-based quantitative ...
