We present a review of the changing state of European permafrost within a spatial zone that
includes the continuous high latitude arctic permafrost of Svalbard and the discontinuous …

This review paper examines thermal conditions (active layer and permafrost), internal
composition (rock and ice components), kinematics and rheology of cree** perennially …

Besides its thermal characteristics cree** mountain permafrost is substantially defined by
its kinematics. Due to the–in general considerable–ice content of rockglaciers, their …

With the use of creep and constant strain rate (CSR) tests, mathematical formulations were
found that describe the thermomechanical behaviour of ice-rich frozen soils. A Glen-type …

In many high mountain regions, warming of perennially frozen ground in both coarse debris
and rock walls has a major influence on slope stability. In this context, indications of …

Temperature measurements in boreholes are the most common method allowing the
quantitative and direct observation of permafrost evolution in the context of climate change …

Abstract The Reichenkar rock glacier (Tyrol, Austria) is a typical tongue‐shaped, 1400 m
long, ice‐cored active rock glacier, which connects to a debris‐free cirque glacier. Aerial …

Many thermo‐hydro‐mechanical parameters and their interactions influence the creep
behaviour of rock glaciers, with the result that the kinematics of rock glaciers are complex …

A set of triaxial constant strain rate and constant stress tests was performed on artificially
frozen soil samples to study the effect of the volumetric ice fraction, strain rate and also …

On a réalisé une plage d'essais de compression mécanique sur des échantillons de sol gelé
à des températures près du point de fusion de la glace de façon à déterminer le fluage de …
