Assessment of glacial geoheritage by multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methods in the Yalnızçam Mountains, Northeastern Türkiye

International Journal of Geoheritage and Parks, 2023
: This study aims to evaluate the geoheritage potentials of glacial and periglacial landforms with quantitative methods. For this purpose, the Yalnızçam Mountains, located northeast of Anatolia, were chosen as the study area.

Late Pleistocene to Holocene glacial, periglacial, and paraglacial geomorphology of the upper Río Limarí basin (30–31° S) in the Andes of central Chile

Journal of Maps
We present a field-based reconstruction of the geomorphology in the Subtropical Andean mountains of the Limarí basin, semiarid central Chile (30–31° S). Fieldwork campaigns and remote-sensing analysis served for detailed geomorphological mapping at four ...

Assessing the Vulnerability of an Inuit Archaeological Site in a Changing Periglacial Environment: A Novel Multimethod Geophysical Approach in Arctic Geoarchaeology

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With northern regions warming at twice the global rate, assessing the state of archaeological sites in these areas is critically important. In this study, we used a multimethod geophysical approach (ERT, GPR, and EMI) to characterize the current geocryological conditions of an Inuit archaeological site on South Aulatsivik Island (Labrador ...

Morphometric characteristics of block streams: A case study of the Vladayska River basin, Vitosha Mountain (Bulgaria) [PDF]

Journal of the Bulgarian Geographical Society
Block streams, also known as stone rivers, are common periglacial landforms in the alpine and subalpine zone of the Balkan Peninsula. These features are especially widely spread in the valleys, slopes and summit of Vitosha Mountain.

Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

Boreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Permafrost thermal regime and active layer dynamics across periglacial landforms in Svalbard's Nordenskiöld Land Permafrost Observatory, 2008–2023

Arctic Science
On Spitsbergen, Svalbard, the Nordenskiöld Land Permafrost Observatory provides ground temperature time series from 2008 to the present in 16 boreholes located in a variety of periglacial landforms.

Middle to Late Pleistocene landscape evolution and glacial dynamics in the Eastern Alps: the Gröbminger Mitterberg record, Austria

Boreas, EarlyView.
Glacial erosion during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has removed much evidence of earlier glaciations and interglacials in the European Alps. At Gröbminger Mitterberg (GM), beneath a blanket of LGM till, a distinctive sediment archive preserves deposits predating the LGM.

Southern Carpathian Periglaciation in Transition: The Role of Ground Thermal Regimes in a Warming Climate

Land
This study examines ground surface and air temperatures and their implications for periglacial activity in the Țarcu Massif, Southern Carpathians, where data on current dynamics and climate responses remain scarce despite widespread periglacial landforms.
