Glacier movement is resisted partially by debris, either within glaciers or under glaciers in
water-saturated layers. In experiments beneath a thick, sliding glacier, ice containing 2 to 11% …

Slow, stable shear of granular materials in landslides, beneath glaciers, and along fault
surfaces is common, despite little or no intrinsic strengthening of such materials with increasing …

Mixtures of rock debris and ice are common in high‐latitude and high‐altitude environments
and are thought to be widespread elsewhere in our solar system. In the form of permafrost …

There exists a need to advance our understanding of debris‐covered glacier surfaces over
relatively short timescales due to rapid, climatically induced areal expansion of debris cover …

To avoid some of the limitations of studying soft-bed processes through boreholes, a prism
of simulated till (1.8 m × 1.6 m × 0.45 m) with extensive instrumentation was constructed in a …

Rock debris on the surface of ablating glaciers is not static, and is often transported across
the ice surface as relief evolves during melt. This supraglacial debris transport has a strong …

In this study, a new remote sensing tool was used in conjunction with sampling of river bank
sediments to map channel migration patterns and estimate the net contribution of bank …

Dipping, arcuate bands of debris‐rich ice outcropping near the margins of glaciers are often
interpreted as thrust faults, assumed to originate in zones of longitudinal compression. …

Supraglacial debris does not remain fixed atop ablating ice, but can move across the ice
surface as supraglacial topography evolves. This active debris movement (distinct from passive …

Floodplain storage commonly represents one of the largest sediment fluxes within sediment
budgets. In watersheds responding to large scale disturbance, floodplain-channel lateral …
