Pleistocene Smoothing and Resurfacing of Appalachian Ridgelines by Periglaciation
Pleistocene cold periods created widespread periglacial conditions across mid‐latitudes, but isolating their geomorphic impact from modern climate, tectonics, and rock strength is challenging.

Mountain Permafrost: A Reflection on the Periglacial Environment in Mongolia
There are different ideas about the classification and distribution of permafrost in Mongolia. Terms such as continuous, discontinuous, sporadic, and isolated permafrost are inconsistently applied; hence, maps of permafrost display different distribution

Suitability of ground-based SfM-MVS for monitoring glacial and periglacial processes [PDF]
Photo-based surface reconstruction is rapidly emerging as an alternative survey technique to lidar (light detection and ranging) in many fields of geoscience fostered by the recent development of computer vision algorithms such as structure from motion ...
