Hydrometeorological and Topographic Controls on Rock Glacier Kinematics: A Case Study From Southeastern Alaska

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Rock glacier kinematics are indicators of alpine climate change, yet the relative influence of thermal and hydrological processes on their motion remains poorly constrained. This uncertainty limits our ability to predict how these permafrost landforms will respond to ongoing climate change.

Unravelling the evolution of the Frébouge polygenetic cone in Val Ferret (Mont Blanc Massif)

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 454-475, April 2026.
Proglacial settings in the Alps are typically polygenetic, often characterized by a complex and discontinuous interplay between glacial, fluvial and gravitational processes. These processes yield high volumes of sediments, which usually exceed their transportation capacity.

Inverse Grading Emerges From Particle‐Scale Migration Under Seasonal Freeze‐Thaw Forcing: Evidence From Multi‐Year Monitoring and Physical Modeling

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Inverse grading, where coarse particles overlay finer materials, is common on talus slopes, yet its progressive formation under realistic conditions is rarely quantified. We integrate multi‐year field observations with controlled freeze‐thaw experiments to elucidate the processes driving particle migration that result in inverse grading and ...

Multidisciplinary approach to revisit the state of activity of a deep‐seated gravitational slope deformation in the frame of the Quaternary geomorphological evolution of the Central Apennines (Italy)

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Evaluating the state of activity of Deep‐Seated Gravitational Slope Deformation (DSGSD) is a challenge that requires multidisciplinary analytical approaches. This research focuses on the slope‐scale gravitational process, framing the role of the Quaternary morphodynamics of a river valley where multiple DSGSDs coexist, to reconstruct the ...

Reconstructing human‐induced geomorphic changes through historical maps and multitemporal remote sensing data in the Cancano–San Giacomo di Fraele reservoirs (Central Alps, Italy)

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Reconstructing ~200 years of landscape change at the Cancano–San Giacomo hydroelectric system (Central Alps), we integrate historical cartography, archival photographs, multitemporal aerial/satellite imagery and field validation to map pre‐ and post‐impoundment landforms.

Asymmetric Crater Relaxation on an Ice‐Rich Ceres Driven by Insolation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Ceres has a high ice content within its crust and is the closest dwarf planet to the sun. The resultant high insolation levels at Ceres' surface (in comparison to the outer solar system) leads to high variations in surface temperature, which is dependent on both latitude and orientation of the slope (i.e., equatorward‐ or poleward‐facing).

The theory of scree slope development with particular reference to its application in the Western Desert, Egypt.

open access: yes, 1980
This thesis is concerned with the characteristics and development of scree slopes; theoretically from a range of climatic environments, and practically from the Western Desert in Egypt. The account is in two parts, each comprising three Chapters.

The Transition From Bedload to Granular Debris Flow on Steep Slopes: A Force Balance Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract In mountainous regions, risk mitigation requires an understanding of sediment‐transport processes. We present new experiments conducted on a steep slope (33%) to study the transition from bedload to debris flow. The flume design was adapted to mimic alpine streams: instead of studying the mobility of a channel bed composed of uniform‐sediments,
