TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the changing state of European permafrost within a spatial zone that includes the continuous high latitude arctic permfrost of Svalbard and the discontinuous high altitude mountain permaffrost of Iceland, Fennoscandia and the Alps.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the response of rockglacier creep to surface temperature increase
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential response of rockglacier creep to a change in surface temperature is simulated using a one-dimensional thermomechanically coupled numerical model, and the authors conclude that increasing rock glacier temperatures may lead to a marked, but both spatially and temporally highly variablespeed-up, before asignificantlossoficecontentbymelt-outisabletoreducethedeformationrateofthefrozenmasstowardsits
Journal ArticleDOI
On Rates and Acceleration Trends of Global Glacier Mass Changes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered that the anthropogenic influences on the atmosphere could now and for the first time represent a major contributing factor to the observed glacier shrinkage at a global scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a palaeoclimatic model of rock-glacier formation in the Swiss Alps
Regula Frauenfelder,Andreas Kääb +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a study was carried out in the Swiss Alps using two different approaches: (1) kinematic analysis of specific active rock glaciers, and (2) description of the altitudinal distribution of relict rock glaciers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detecting and quantifying mountain permafrost creep from in situ inventory, space-borne radar interferometry and airborne digital photogrammetry
TL;DR: In this paper, three different techniques for detecting and quantifying mountain permafrost creep are compared: (1) rock glacier inventory and characterization from in situ indicators, (2) space-borne radar interferometry, and (3) digital processing of repeated airborne imagery.
