This first overview of large-scale rock slope failure (RSF) in the Pyrenees addresses the eastern third of the range. Around 30 principal RSFs >0.25 km and 20 lesser or uncertain cases have been identified from remote imagery and groundtruthing. Compared with other European mountain ranges, RSF incidence is relatively sparse, displays no obvious regional trend or spatial clustering, and occurs ...

The studied dataset from the Southern Carpathians permitted quantification of a considerable amount inherited 10Be in glacial boulders and bedrock samples cirque area. phases largest extension display no signs significant inheritance, enabled establishment deglaciation chronology southern valleys Retezat Mts. timing maximum glacier extent (20.6+0.8/−1.3 ka) coincided with Last Glacial Maximum, ...

We present the first extensive high-resolution glacial geomorphic map west of Andean Cordillera in southernmost Chile (52.8–53.1°S, 73.0–73.9°W). The extends over 1565 km2 and is based on satellite images aerial photographs. At selected locations, remotely mapped geomorphology was corroborated by field observations. study area dominated erosional landforms (77%) depositional (23%), with publish...

During the Late Pleistocene, main mountain ranges of Iberian Peninsula were covered by small icefields and cirque alpine glaciers. The deglaciation triggered paraglacial processes that generated landforms, mostly within ice-free glacial cirques. In this research we analyse process in Muxivén Cirque (42°15?N – 6°16?W), upper Sil River Basin, which includes some largest relict rock glaciers Canta...
