On the sensitivity of Holocene talus-derived rock glaciers to climate change in the Ben Ohau Range, New Zealand / Martin P. Kirkbride, Vanessa Brazier.
Title: | On the sensitivity of Holocene talus-derived rock glaciers to climate change in the Ben Ohau Range, New Zealand / Martin P. Kirkbride, Vanessa Brazier. |
Author(s): | Kirkbride, Martin P. Brazier, Vanessa. |
Date: | 1995. |
In: | Journal of Quaternary Science : JQS. (1995.), Vol. 10(4) (1995) |
Abstract: | Study of mophology and surface age leads to a conceptual model of rock glacier formation with two thresholds: presence of a cool climate and presence of sufficiently thick talus to generate adequate shear stress to induce movement. The ability of this model to explain the phenomena is discussed. |
Notes: | Journal of Quaternary Science : JQS. Vol. 10(4) :353-365 (1995). References: Glen, Ice physics bibliography. |
Keywords: | 551.34 -- Geocryology. Frozen ground. 551.343.4 -- Rock glaciers. 01 -- Bibliographies: Glen. E8 -- Glaciology: frost action and permafrost. (931) -- New Zealand. |
