Modelling rock wall permafrost degradation in the Mont Blanc massif from the LIA to the end of the 21st century
High alpine rock wall permafrost is extremely sensitive to climate change. Its degradation has a strong impact on landscape evolution and can trigger rockfalls constituting an increasing threat to socio-economical activities of highly frequented areas; quantitative understanding of permafrost ev...
