Title: The rock glacier, a "new" feature in Scandinavian geomorphology / Harald Svensson.
Author(s): Svensson, Harald.
Date: 1989.
In: Geografiska Annaler. Series A. Physical Geography. (1989.), Vol. 71A(1-2) (1989)
Abstract: Latest identified periglacial form in Scandinavia is talus-derived rock glacier. This feature has previously been described as talus terrace or talus moraine but true permafrost origin was not recognized.
