Samples of clasts from deposits with different erosional histories near the margins of four Jotunheimen glaciers revealed systematic differences in their aggregate form characteristics. Samples of frost-shattered detritus generally contain many
Résultats d'une approche quantitative, analytique et sédimentologique adoptée pour l'étude d'un lit fluvial façonné par une combinaison unique de processus fluviaux et périglaciaires dans l'étage alpin de Jotunheimen. Description morphologique du
This paper concerns the latter aspects by providing morphological details and Schmidt hammer (rock hardness/weathering) data from a large rock slope failure at the mouth of Urdadalen, in the Jotunheimen. It is believed that this represents the first
Qualitative und quantitative Erfassung von Permafrost in Tarfala (Schwedisch-Lappland) und Jotunheimen (Norwegen) mit Hilfe geoelektrischer Sondierungen. (Mesure qualitative et quantitative du permafrost à Tarfala (Laponie suédoise) et Jotunheimen
l'épaisseur totale du pergélisol est estimé à plus de 100 m. A Juvasshytta (Jotunheimen) le pergélisol de grande résistivité montre une épaisseur minimale de 15 à 50 m à 1800 m d'altitude (150 m à 2200 m). L'épaisseur totale du pergélisol devrait être 20 à 40
Ground temperature variability on a glacier foreland, Storbreen, Jotunheimen, Norway
This paper presents an analysis of ground temperature variation (10 cm and 50 cm) gathered from August 1998 through July 2000 across the glacier foreland of Storbreen, a cirque glacier in the Jotunheimen Mountains. Categorical data in the form
Endolithic lichens, rapid biological weathering and Schmidt hammer R-values on recently exposed rock surfaces : Storbreen glacier foreland, Jotunheimen, Norway
the reduction in Schmidt hammer R-values that followed the rapid colonization by this endolithic lichen of pyroxene-granulite boulders on terrain deglaciated over the last 88 years on the Storbreen glacier foreland, Jotunheimen. The rapid rate of biological
Landslide-glacier interaction in a neoparaglacial setting at Tverrbytnede, Jotunheimen, southern Norway
A tongue-like, boulder-dominated deposit in Tverrbytnede, upper Visdalen, Jotunheimen, is interpreted as the product of a rock avalanche (landslide). Lichenometric dating of the deposit indicates an approximate emplacement age of AD 1900
Geophysical surveys designed to delineate the altitudinal limit of mountain permafrost : an example from Jotunheimen, Norway
Three geophysical methods (DC resistivity tomography, refraction seismic tomography and electromagnetic profiling (EM-31) in comparison with direct temperature measurements) have been applied to delineate the altitudinal limit of Jotunheimen
Temporal and spatial variability of soil pH in patterned-ground chronosequences : Jotunheimen, Norway
Glacier foregrounds of Jotunheimen are characterized by the occurrence of Little Ice Age end moraines, dating to approximately the mid 18th century. Patterned-ground features occurring within chronologically established time units were studied
Holocene chemical weathering, surface lowering and rock weakening rates on glacially eroded bedrock surfaces in an alpine periglacial environment, Jotunheimen, southern Norway
