The problem of the presence of relict cryoplanation morphology on mountain Tupižnica (Eastern Serbia) [PDF]

open access: yesGlasnik Srpskog Geografskog Društva, 2010
During several-year long research on Tupižnica (1160 m), a low limestone mountain in eastern Serbia, some terraces, cirque niches and other occurrences and forms in the highest parts of mountain with unfamiliar genetic origin have been registered ...

Periglacial phenomena affecting nuclear waste disposal [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1997
Slow future changes in astronomic phenomena seem to make it likely that Finland nll suffer several cold periods during the next 100,000 years. The paper analyses the characteristics of the periglacial factors that are most likely to influence the long ...

Effect of hyaloclastite breccia boulders on meso-scale periglacial-aeolian landsystem in semi-arid Antarctic environment, James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2020
In this study we aim to describe the processes leading to the creation of a specific periglacial and aeolian landsystem, which evolves around the hyaloclastite breccia boulders on James Ross Island, north-eastern Antarctic Peninsula.

Conceptual model for talus slope development in Brattegg Valley (SW Spitsbergen) based on sedimentology of debris deposits in periglacial zone [PDF]

open access: yesPolish Polar Research, 2023
The talus slopes occur in all climatic zones on the Earth. These forms are sensitive to climate fluctuations, therefore they may be indicators of changes in the environment and contain the record of the geomorphological events after the deglaciation ...
