Rock glaciers in Daxue Shan, south-eastern Tibetan Plateau: an inventory, their distribution, and their environmental controls [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2018 Rock glaciers are typical periglacial landforms. They can indicate the existence of permafrost, and can also shed light on the regional geomorphological and climatic conditions under which they may have developed.

EQUIVALENT GEOLOGICAL STRENGTH INDEX (GSI) APPROACH WITH APPLICATION TO ROCK MASS SLOPE STABILITY
Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik, 2022 A considerable amount of slope stability analysis has been observed in jointed rock masses in which the GSI (Geological Strength Index) estimated at the outcropping level is considered input data to define the rock mass strength.

Earthquake‐induced landslide scenarios for seismic microzonation. Application to the Accumoli area (Rieti, Italy) [PDF]
, 2019 Scenarios of earthquake-induced landslides are necessary for seismic microzonation (SM) studies since they must be integrated with the mapping of instability areas.
