Rapid permafrost thaw in the high-latitude and high-elevation areas increases hillslope
susceptibility to landsliding by altering geotechnical properties of hillslope materials …

Natural dust is often associated with hot, subtropical deserts, but significant dust events have
been reported from cold, high latitudes. This review synthesizes current understanding of …

Glaciers cover∼ 10% of the Earth's land surface, but they are shrinking rapidly across most
parts of the world, leading to cascading impacts on downstream systems. Glaciers impart …

In alpine regions worldwide, climate change is dramatically altering ecosystems and
affecting biodiversity in many ways. For streams, receding alpine glaciers and snowfields …

Contemporary climate change in Alaska has resulted in amplified rates of press and pulse
disturbances that drive ecosystem change with significant consequences for socio …

Since the 1970s there has been a considerable expansion in biogeomorphological research
which considers the complex, two-way relationships between biological, ecological and …

In glacier forefields, the chronosequence approach is used to investigate ecological,
biogeochemical and physical features of autogenic successional change as a function of …

In many of the world's high mountain systems, glacier recession in response to climate
change is accompanied by a paraglacial response whereby glaciers are undergoing a …

Glacier forefields have long provided ecologists with a model to study patterns of plant
succession following glacier retreat. While plant-survey-based approaches applied along …

Glacier forefields are landscapes in transition from glacial to non‐glacial conditions; this
implies intense geomorphic, hydrological and ecological dynamics with important on‐and off …
