DOI: 10.1017/jog.2016.120
Abstract: Supraglacial ponds play a key role in absorbing atmospheric energy and directing it to the ice of debris-covered glaciers, but the spatial and temporal distribution of these features is not well documented. We analyse 172… read more here.

DOI: 10.1144/qjegh2019-048
Abstract: In 2015, the Mw 7.8 Gorkha earthquake struck Nepal, triggering thousands of landslides across the central and eastern Himalayas. These landslides had many adverse effects, including causing widespread damage to low-grade transport routes (e.g. tracks,… read more here.
