MARC recordIllustrative notes of the geomorphological map of the Upper Arma Valley (Stura di Demonte Valley, Maritime Alps) / Matteo Spagnolo.
| Title: | Illustrative notes of the geomorphological map of the Upper Arma Valley (Stura di Demonte Valley, Maritime Alps) / Matteo Spagnolo. |

| Abstract: | Presents map of present-day geomorphology, identifying results of glacial, periglacial, gravitational, running-water, anthropogenic, karstic and structural processes. Most glacial and periglacial processes are no longer active, but cryoclast processes, mostly on southern flanks, still feed numerous gravitational debris fans, slope talus and debris-flow fans. Reconstructs glaciers that once occupied Cavera and Serour valleys, estimating ELAs around 2,100 asl, and discusses LGM configuration of Arma Valley glacier system. Identifies embryonic pro-talus rock glaciers on almost every northern slope above 1,800-2,000 m, and a few cases of rock glaciers developed from lateral and frontal moraines in upper Viribianc and Serour valleys. |
