DETECTION AND QUANTIFICATION OF ROCK GLACIER CREEP USING HIGH-RESOLUTION ORTHOIMAGES OF VIRTUAL GLOBES
Rock glaciers are creep phenomena of mountain permafrost and are composed of ice and rocks. Active rock glaciers move downslope by force of gravity. Maximum creep/flow velocities of individual rock glaciers may vary from a few centimeters up to several meters per year, depending on the underlying...
