Лëд и снег, 2020 We analyzed multi-time satellite images of the Central Caucasus glacial zone and interpreted more than thirty rock avalanche events in the 21st century with a total damage area of more than 25 km2 (including the collapse zone of the Kolka Glacier ...

, 2021 . On 22 March 2021, a ~50 M m3 ice-rock avalanche occurred from 6500 m asl in the Sedongpu basin, southeastern Tibet. The avalanche transformed into a highly mobile flow which temporarily blocked the Yarlung Tsangpo river.

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.A zero‐dimensional perovskite‐inspired scintillator (Cs3Cu2I5) is developed as a high‐radiation‐resilient radionuclide analyzer capable of operating under extreme γ‐ray environments. Even after 200 kGy irradiation, the device fully restores its original spectroscopic performance through simple thermal annealing, demonstrating intrinsic defect ...

Kinematic Processes and Fragmentation Characteristics of Walai Rock Avalanche Landslide in Tibet
工程科学与技术, 2020 Fragmentation is a very common phenomenon in high-speed long runout landslides, which is not only the basis of the granular flow hypothesis, but also related to energy dissipation and transmission of landslide.

Distinct element analysis for rock avalanche
International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1989 The mechanical behavior of a particle assembly is described based on Cundall's distinct element method which uses an explicit numerical scheme. Particle interaction was detected at every contact, and particle motion modelled for each particle in an assembly.We used Cundall's simulation method to study the mechanism of slope collapse.

Disposition Model for Permafrost Degradation in Mountainous Regions
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Permafrost is a widespread thermal phenomenon in Arctic and high mountain regions that, in combination with steep terrain, exerts a key control on slope stability. Its degradation in response to climatic warming can modify the likelihood and timing of rockfall, debris flow and related mass movements. Robust information on the current state and

Estimating the travel distance of channelized rock avalanches using genetic programming method
Open GeosciencesA number of channelized rock avalanche events triggered by the Wenchuan earthquake resulted in considerable destruction. Identifying the factors affecting the travel distances of channelized rock avalanches and predicting their travel distances are ...

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Due to its subsurface nature, permafrost cannot be directly observed with the naked eye or optical remote sensing. Consequently, accurately describing its distribution and thermal state is challenging. This is especially true in vast, remote environments, where obtaining comprehensive field data is demanding or improbable.
