Late Pleistocene Low-Altitude Atlantic Palaeoglaciation and Palaeo-ELA Modelling: Insights from Serra da Cabreira, NW Iberia

Quaternary
Low-altitude palaeoglaciation in Atlantic mountain regions provides important insights into past climatic conditions and moisture dynamics during the Last Glacial Cycle. This study presents the first quantitative reconstruction of palaeoglaciers in Serra

Glacial geomorphology of the Gaick, Central Grampians, Scotland

Journal of Maps, 2019
The Gaick is an enigmatic glaciated landscape in the Central Grampians, Scotland, dominated by an expansive dissected plateau. Previous studies have postulated widely differing interpretations of the glacial landforms and current understanding of the ...

Some Considerations on Climatic Geomorphology of the Romanian Territory

Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2009
The main issues about relation between climate and relief in the Romanian geomorphological literature follow three directions of research: the description of Pleistocene glacial and Pleistocene-Holocene periglacial landforms in the Carpathians; the ...

Modeling of Explosive Pingo-like Structures and Fluid-Dynamic Processes in the Arctic Permafrost: Workflow Based on Integrated Geophysical, Geocryological, and Analytical Data

Remote Sensing
Understanding the mechanisms responsible for the origin, evolution, and failure of pingos with explosive gas emissions and the formation of craters in the Arctic permafrost requires comprehensive studies in the context of fluid dynamic processes ...

Caractérisation et origine des "creuses" : approche sous SIG (exemples en Thiérache)

Physio-Géo, 2016
"Creuses" are wooded ravine-like incisions with intermittent flowing that cut the chalky plateaus of the northern Paris Basin. They were formed during periglacial Quaternary periods, as a result of the concentration of the surface runoff leading to ...

Climatic Zonality of Periglacial Landforms in Mountain Areas [PDF]

ARCTIC, 1994
The alpine periglacial areas of the world can be divided into three distinctive landscape types dominated by one of the following: active rock glaciers, active block streams, or gelifluction landforms. These also correspond to distinct climates, the active rock glaciers occurring under cold, humid conditions; the active block streams in cold, dry ...

Outcrops of Columnar Andesite Shaped by Periglacial Processes – Jersak Hills, King George Island, Antarctica

Quaestiones Geographicae
This paper is an inventory of cold-climate landforms present in the andesitic Jersak Hills on King George Island in maritime Antarctica. These landforms developed under distinctive rock control imposed by columnar jointing in andesite.
