A morphometric approach to reveal the effects of ground-ice thaw on rapid mass movements in northern Iceland
International audience Permafrost degradation is one of the main controlling factors of slope instabilities in glacial and periglacial environments (e.g., Gruber and Haeberli, 2007). In permafrost terrains, ground ice can occur in pores, cavities, voids in soils or rocks, and its thaw can cause slop...
