An approach for characterising the weathering behaviour of Flysch slopes applied to the carbonatic Flysch of Alicante (Spain) [PDF]
, 2014 Various studies indicate that most of the slope instabilities affecting Flysch heterogeneous rock masses are related to differential weathering of the lithologies that make up the slope. Therefore, the weathering characteristics of the intact rock are of

Factors for strength attenuation of mudstone during slaking and disintegration
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019 Slaking, a common engineering characteristic, is the main weathering mode from clay-bearing rocks to soils. Due to the influences of wetting-drying cycles of natural climate, mudstone can slake and disintegrate into the grains with different sizes, which

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.
