The blocking of river courses by mass movements is very common in mountainous areas
with deep and narrow valleys. Landslide dams may pose serious threats to people and their …

This paper reviews frost‐weathering studies in the last five years and proposes key
questions to be answered. New techniques have enabled us to monitor moisture contents …

Glaciers and Glaciation is the classic textbook for all students of glaciation. Stimulating and
accessible, it has established a reputation as a comprehensive and essential resource. In …

Newmark's sliding-block model is widely used to estimate coseismic slope performance.
Early efforts to develop simple regression models to estimate Newmark displacement were …

During the twentieth century, several methods to assess the stability of slopes during
earthquakes were developed. Pseudostatic analysis was the earliest method; it involved …

The aims of this review are to:(a) describe and interpret structures in valley glaciers in
relation to strain history; and (b) to explore how these structures inform our understanding of …

In the Wenchuan area in SW China, an abundance of loose co-seismic landslide debris was
present on the slopes after the Wenchuan earthquake, which in later years served as source …

Glacial retreat in recent decades has exposed unstable slopes and allowed deep water to
extend beneath some of those slopes. Slope failure at the terminus of Tyndall Glacier on 17 …

Detailed sedimentological studies concerning different facies types and the factors
influencing their development (such as lithology, topography, substrates, etc.) were carried …
