Field-validated imaging of decadal and seasonal changes in permafrost bedrock using quantitative electrical resistivity tomography (Zugspitze, Germany/Austria)

Abstract. Ongoing permafrost degradation in alpine regions requires monitoring methods that accurately decipher spatial and temporal dynamics. Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is widely applied in bedrock permafrost, yet its outputs are often interpreted only qualitatively...

How ice apron loss and permafrost degradation promoted the Platteikogel rock slope failure: a thermo-mechanical reconstruction

Abstract. The Alpine cryosphere changes at unprecedented speed, affecting the thermal, hydrological, and mechanical state and behaviour of rock slopes. While numerous studies investigated singular drivers for progressive rock slope failures, the knowledge of hydro-thermo-mechanic...
