Permafrost creep and rockglaciers
Abstract Active rockglaciers are discussed as the visible expression of creep of alpine or mountain permafrost. They are mainly formed below talus slopes (talus rockglaciers) and below lateral and terminal moraines (debris rockglaciers). Rockglaciers prefer continental, comparatively dry, winter‐col...
