Storage-discharge characteristics of an active rock glacier catchment in the Innere olgrube, Austrian Alps

Thomas Wagner et al.

Summary: Various hydro(geo)logical tools were used to assess the active rock glacier Innere olgrube and its catchment area in the Otztal Alps, Austria. The study found that snowmelt, ice melt, and rainfall contribute 35.8%, 27.6%, and 36.6%, respectively, to the catchment. Isotopic data revealed that water derived from ice melt mainly comes from two small cirque glaciers within the catchment.

Changes in Ground Temperature and Dynamics in Mountain Permafrost in the Swiss Alps

Anna Haberkorn et al.

Summary: The Swiss Alps are experiencing rising temperatures, increasing precipitation, and accelerating degradation of mountain permafrost, with ice-poor areas being particularly affected. Thicker active layers and prolonged thaw periods are observed, pointing towards ongoing permafrost degradation in the future.

Pluri-decadal evolution of rock glaciers surface velocity and its impact on sediment export rates towards high alpine torrents

Mario Kummert et al.

Summary: The study assesses sediment transfer activity between five rock glaciers in the western European Alps and their connected headwaters of torrential channels, showing accelerated surface velocities and increased erosion rates at the front of rock glaciers since the 1970s. However, in some cases, the acceleration resulted in the advance of landforms over their sediments, leading to comparatively low sediment export to the torrents.
