  • Are there geomorphic indicators of permafrost in the Tatra Mountains ?
  • Modelling of high-mountain relief
  • Indicator ; Mountain ; Patterned ground ; Periglacial features ; Permafrost ; Poland ; Slope deposit ; Slope dynamics ; Tatra Mountains
  • The aim of this paper has been to discuss, by reference to the Tatra Mountains, the relationship between landform development and the presence of permafrost in mountains in which the latter is only present in isolated patches. Thus the slope

  • Mountain-top detritus characterizes the 2 high summits of the Gaspésie Montains, eastern Canada. It is suggested that these angular rock-rubble accumulations developed from the disintegration of coarse-grained igneous bedrock exposed to thermal
  • High-mountain elements in the geomorphology of the Sudetes, Bohemian Massif, and their significance

  • This paper reviews the existing regional literature, and develops the argument that the most elevated areas in the Sudetes are very distinctive geomorphologically and bear a number of affinities to high mountain environments. Particular attention
  • The dynamics of recent geomorphic processes in the alpine zone of the Tatra Mountains
  • Modelling of high-mountain relief
  • Aeolian deflation ; Debris flow ; Landslide ; Mountain ; Nivation ; Periglacial features ; Slope dynamics ; Slovak Republic ; Solifluction ; Tatra Mountains
  • This paper presents the results of direct measures of some geomorphic processes acting, or said to be active, in the alpine area of the Tatra Mountains. Measurements of debris flows and debris slides, as well as of eolian-nivational, solifluction
  • The main indicators of Quaternary tectonic uplift are the young mountain slopes of the Darjeeling Himalaya. Owing to deforestation and extensive land use, the earlier natural tendency of a dominance of channel incision over slope degradation has
  • changed to prevailing aggradation, even in steep valley reaches, caused by intensive slope mass movements and the overloading of the mountain creeks. Aggradation progresses upstream along the rivers dissecting the mountain front.

  • The Mont Dore massif is a typical high-mountain area with nival relief dominant above the timberline. Nivation, cryogenic processes and deflation are the key morphogenic processes, but runoff action, especially on slopes with deteriored vegetation

  • . Research was done in all the high-mountain areas of Slovakia except the Chočské Vrchy. The results are compared with those obtained for the sub-montane belt (the area below the upper timberline).

  • Modelling of high-mountain relief
  • Valuable estimates of Holocene solutional erosion rates are offered by ice-scoured limestone pavements which provide adequate reference surfaces and reliable chronological control. From Spitsbergen to the equatorial mountains and hyperhumid Chilean

  • Land use changes progressing in the last two decades are the result of political and socio-economic transformation. Their effect is the retreat of agriculture from mountain areas and a reduction in the intensity of certain geomorphic processes
