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

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]
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
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.
