Glissements de terrain et évolution des versants

open access: yes, 1984
The frequency of rotational and deep landslides on valley sides, entirely shaped in coherent rocks (granite, gneiss, calcarenite) reputed unfavourable to these mass movements when they are not weathered, is explained not only by the state of fracturation

The Age and Origin of Block Deposits in the Victorian Alps, Australia

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large periglacial block deposits are found in the mountains of southeastern Australia. Despite their widespread distribution, their mode of formation and age are poorly understood. These landforms hold considerable potential to shed light on the nature of cooling during glacial periods. In this paper we present a new study of block deposits in

Observations of coastal cliff landslide runout in southern California from 21 years of data

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
Runout distance from coastal cliff landslides along the coast of northern San Diego County, California USA between 2001 and 2023 were mapped and quantified. Results indicated cliff height influenced runout distance, and that 98% of maximum runout distances were less than half the cliff height.
