Recent acceleration of rock glaciers is well recognized in the European Alps, but similar
behavior is hardly documented elsewhere. Also, the controlling factors are not fully …

This contribution provides preliminary results and discussion elements on the so-called
destabilization of rock glaciers based essentially on the on-going study of five rock glaciers …

Glacier lakes pose threat to downstream settlements and infrastructure. In recent decades
the number and area of lakes have been growing at an accelerating rate due to worldwide …

Ice-rock avalanches which occur in glacial environments are controlled by the presence of
snow and ice in the moving material and by possible propagation onto icy basal surfaces. All …

ABSTRACT A photogrammetric survey of the movement of supraglacial boulders together
with field survey of surface markers has revealed the spatial and temporal change in velocity …

Periods of dramatically accelerated motion, in which the flow velocity increases suddenly
from about 55 cm/d to a peak of 100–300cm/d and then decreases gradually over the course …

The quantification of rock glacier kinematics on a regional basis has gained increasing
importance in recent years. Here, we applied an image tracking approach on high-resolution …

The quantification of rock glacier dynamics has gained increasing importance in recent
years. In this study, the spatial and temporal flow patterns of perennially frozen debris in the …

Ice loss from the glaciers of Novaya Zemlya (NVZ) is the dominant contributor to sea level for
the Russian Arctic. Here we present maps of glacier elevation change rates (dh dt) and …

This study investigates rock glacier destabilization based on the results of a unique in situ
and remote-sensing-based monitoring network focused on the kinematics of the rock glacier …
