Influence of meteorological factors on rockfall occurrence in a middle mountain limestone cliff [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016 The influence of meteorological conditions on rockfall occurrence has been often highlighted, but knowledge of it is still not sufficient due to the lack of exhaustive and precise rockfall databases.

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.Three‐dimensional landscape changes were investigated in the Kitchener Avalanche Path, Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park, New Zealand, after an extreme storm in July 2022. The Path features an earthen diversion berm constructed in 2018 to mitigate the risk of avalanches to the adjacent Aoraki/Mount Cook Village.

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019 . To evaluate the geospatial hazard relationships between recent (contemporary) rockfalls and their prehistoric predecessors, we compare the locations, physical characteristics, and lithologies of rockfall boulders deposited during the 2010–2011 ...

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.We provide a geomorphological analysis of Cordillera Vilcanota and use morphostratigraphic principles to reconstruct palaeo icefield extent and palaeoglacier readvances, likely during the Antarctic Cold Reversal and Younger Dryas. We find evidence of temperate and polythermal ice margins, with limited glaciofluvial landform generation.

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract A small‐volume 6,000 m3 rockslide struck the Lorgino hamlet of Crevoladossola (NW Italy) just before 23:00 UTC on 26 January 2023, at the boundary of a nearby marble quarry. The rockslide severely damaged the mining infrastructure and halted operations for months, fortunately without causing injuries or casualties.

Environmental Research LettersSince the end of the 20th century, each decade has been warmer than the previous one in the European Alps. As a consequence, Alpine rock walls are generally facing high rockfall activity, likely due to permafrost degradation.

Short Communication: Monitoring rockfalls with the Raspberry Shake
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2018 . We evaluate the performance of the low-cost seismic sensor Raspberry Shake to identify and monitor rockfall activity in alpine environments. The test area is a slope adjacent to the Great Aletsch Glacier in the Swiss Alps, i.e. the Moosfluh deep-seated

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Geranium sylvaticum*
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.Geranium sylvaticum is a perennial forb of upland grasslands, woodlands and riverbanks in northern Britain, with scattered native occurrences also in Wales, central England and Northern Ireland. It has an extensive native range in Europe and Asia. The species is gynodioecious, with individual plants typically female or hermaphrodite.

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 115-128, February 2026.ABSTRACT This study explores how Norwegian leaders in rural municipalities attend to disaster risk governance and prepare for resilient response to threats from systemic, interconnected, and cascading hazards. Systemic risk management in the Norwegian municipalities will depend on the context and how critical organizational processes are managed by the
