Investigation of Possible Periglacial Involution Structures: Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado

open access: yes, 2016
Possible periglacial involution structures exposed in several road cuts within Mesa Verde National Park (MVNP) were documented and analyzed to determine whether the structures originated from periglacial processes.

Influence of the Dynamic Geological History of the Japanese Archipelago on the Molecular Phylogeography of the Riffle Beetle Zaitzeviaria ovata (Coleoptera: Elmidae)

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The geographic genetic structure and distribution within species are shaped by factors such as dynamic tectonic activity and topographic changes associated with climate change. We used the largely flightless, freshwater‐dependent beetle Zaitzeviaria ovata (Elmidae) as a model to investigate how ancient topography and dynamic geological history

Applied Geophysics in Periglacial Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Many research problems in cryospheric science, such as global warming-induced permafrost degradation, require information about the subsurface, which can be imaged using geophysical methods. This book is a practical guide to the application of geophysical techniques in mountainous and polar terrain, where the harsh environment and nature of the ...

An investigation of potential periglacial landforms on the northern plains of Mars: an integrated field, laboratory and remote sensing study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this investigation the hypothesis that the Northern Plains of Mars have been shaped by periglacial processes is assessed. A periglacial formation mechanism has been proposed for a variety of martian landforms.

Łódź Region and its Northern Vicinity under Vistulian Glaciation Conditions

open access: yesQuaestiones Geographicae, 2014
An overview of palaeogeographical findings of the last glacial period (MIS 5d-MIS 2) has been given for the Łódź region. Processes which influenced the area outside of ice-sheet margin are presented with respect to space and time, as predominantly driven

Luminescence age and palaeoenvironmental implications of a late Pleistocene ground wedge on the northeastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yes, 2001
A periglacial ground wedge in bajada gravel near the northern base of the Qinghai Nan Shan underlies loess of late- and postglacial age. The composition and structure of the wedge fill are consistent with an ice-wedge origin, implying former permafrost ...

Rhizosphere effect of three plant species of environment under periglacial conditions (Majella Massif, central Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The chemical, physical and biological processes occurring in the rhizosphere can influence plant growth by modifying root associated microorganisms and nutrient cycles.

Subterranean periglacial landforms in Ledena jama pod Hrušico cave, Slovenia

open access: yes, 2016
Periglacial landscapes are characteristic for high latitudes or high elevations. Ice caves are environments where permafrost and periglacial conditions exist in milder climates due to specific microclimatic setting.

Detailed alluvial fan geomorphology in a high-arctic periglacial environment, Svalbard: application of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) surveys

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2019
A 1:850 detailed map of the geomorphology of the Dynamisk Creek alluvial fan on Svalbard was produced based on very high-resolution data collected using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in 2014. The map documents features within the surface of the fan (0.
