Testing the area–altitude balance ratio (AABR) and accumulation–area ratio (AAR) methods of calculating glacier equilibrium-line altitudes
In this study, we compare equilibrium-line altitudes (ELAs) calculated using the area–
altitude balance ratio (AABR) and the accumulation–area ratio (AAR) methods, with …

Glaciers, rock avalanches and the 'buzzsaw'in cirque development: Why mountain cirques are of mainly glacial origin
IS Evans - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
It has been proposed that most cirques are source‐area depressions of large, deep‐seated
rock‐slope failures. Yet the close relation between cirques and climate is convincing …
