High-Resolution Detection of Periglacial Landforms Deformation Using Radarsat-2 and GF-7 Stereo Optical Imagery

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
In cold mountain environments, rock glaciers and talus represent common periglacial landforms. Accurate monitoring of their activity is crucial for understanding alpine kinematics.

Periglacial landforms and the geological controlling factors: examples from the highest mountains of the Balkan Peninsula [PDF]

Journal of the Bulgarian Geographical Society, 2021
Periglacial landforms are typical features of the high mountain environment on the Balkan Peninsula. Their formation and diversity is determined by climatic, topographic and geological factors. Presently active periglacial processes occur above 1700-2000

Terrestrial Signature of a Recently-Tidewater Glacier and Adjacent Periglaciation, Windy Glacier (South Shetland Islands, Antarctic)

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Contemporary retreat of glaciers is well visible in the West Antarctic region. The aim of this study is to identify, map and quantify terrestrial glacial and periglacial landforms developed in front of Windy Glacier (Warszawa Icefield, King George Island,

A Comparative View of Glacial and Periglacial Landforms on Earth and Mars [PDF]

Bulletin of the AAS, 2021
This paper emphasizes the importance of using terrestrial analogues to improve our understanding of the role of ice on Mars through its associated landforms. We discuss terrestrial regions and techniques that can help understand Martian icy environments, and highlight the necessity to explore the Martian cryosphere as the next natural step.

Spatial and temporal distribution of glaciers, debris-covered glaciers and rock glaciers during the last deglaciation in the Valley of the Bonaigua (Central Pyrenees)

Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2020
The application of the paleogeographic method to the study of glacial landforms and rock glaciers allows their morphometric and sedimentological characterization, the establishment of a detailed morphostratigraphic sequence and a chronological proposal ...

Glacial and periglacial geomorphology of central Troms and Finnmark county, Arctic Norway

Journal of Maps, 2021
Here we present a glacial and periglacial geomorphological map of a ∼6800 km2 region of central Troms and Finnmark county, Arctic Norway. The map is presented at a 1:115,000 scale with the aim of characterising the spatial distribution of glacial and ...

Soilscapes from Byers Peninsula, Maritime Antarctic: landform-lithology controls in soil formation [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
The Byers Peninsula, the largest ice-free area in Maritime Antarctica, is vital for studying landscape-scale natural processes due to its diverse periglacial landforms.

Periglacial relief of Crnook (southeast Serbia) [PDF]

Glasnik Srpskog Geografskog Društva, 2012
This paper presents the results of geomorphological research of the periglacial relief on mountain Crnook (1881 m) in Southeast Serbia. The results have showed the significant presence of modern periglacial morphology on this mountain which is ...

Rapid regional assessment of rock glacier activity based on DInSAR wrapped-phase signal [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Alpine periglacial landforms like rock glaciers and protalus ramparts are key indicators of the state of permafrost. They are characterized by complex deformation mechanisms and temporal trends, possibly evolving towards destabilization.
