The periglacial engine of mountain erosion – Part 1: Rates of frost cracking and frost creep [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2015
With accelerating climate cooling in the late Cenozoic, glacial and periglacial erosion became more widespread on the surface of the Earth. The resultant shift in erosion patterns significantly changed the large-scale morphology of many mountain ...

Origin and structure of Devensian depressions at Letton, Herefordshire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Groups of circular to oval enclosed depressions in soft sediments of Pleistocene age are relatively common in north-west Europe. These features are normally interpreted as being either glacial or periglacial in origin.

Cryomorphological topographies in the study of ice caves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Producción CientíficaThe current interest in ice caves requires that their varied manifestations be known as accurately as possible in view of their responses to a global change and also to their great potential as paleoenvironmental witnesses.

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.

Vocabulaire périglaciaire bilingue [PDF]

open access: yes, 1962
A considerable lack of agreement exists, particularly between French and English-speaking geomorphologists, on the precise use of many periglacial terms, and up to the presenty there bas been little correlation of the periglacial terminology of these two

Applying Karst Hydrology Concepts to Anthropogenic Subsurface Systems and Mine Water Management

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Due to the pronounced similarities between natural karst systems and mine workings, we consider mine workings as man‐made karst and present the concept of ‘anthropogenic karst’. ABSTRACT Mine water management is a permanent challenge in post‐mining areas where drainage adits play a crucial role for the regulation of water levels within partially ...

Périglaciaire du Canada : idées nouvelles et perspectives globales [PDF]

open access: yes, 1961
Periglacial conditions which occur in Canada have been studied recently. Most of the research has been so jar limited in scope (mostly patterned ground and permafrost), undertaken for practical purposes (v.g.

Dust Deposition and Loess Accretion in New Zealand's South Island: Examining Links between Cold‐Climate Processes and Dust Production

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
We compared temporal variability in dust and loess accretion in New Zealand's South Island with glacial activity in the central Southern Alps, considered the main mechanism of silt production, in (i) a proximal loess deposit at Barrhill, Rakaia River and (ii) a distal dust record from a peat mire in Central Otago.

Eine begrabene Solifluktionsdecke und ihr Einfluß auf die heutige Vegetation: Beobachtungen auf einer Bliesterterrasse (Saarland) [PDF]

open access: yesEiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 1964
In the lower Blies valley the author discovered a periglacial mudflow consisting of white marl and fragments of limestone, surmounted by 25-30 cm river-sand belonging to a Riß-terrace. The surface of these deposits was covered by fossil ice-wedges.

Revealing the Internal Structure of Mars‐Analog Glaciers From Drone‐Based Radar Sounding

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Martian debris‐covered glaciers (DCGs) contain large quantities of water ice beneath a protective layer of rock and dust. Properties of the overlying regolith such as density and depth to ice are critical parameters for guiding in situ resource utilization (ISRU) of water and coring missions targeting potential habitats.
