Structure interne du glacier rocheux actif de Las Argualas (Pyrénées aragonaises, Espagne)

Abstract: Les glaciers rocheux sont constitués d'un mélange de glace et de débris formés au pied de parois rocheuses, à la limite des neiges permanentes. La glace provient de la transformation de la neige des avalanches, du regel des eaux de fonte des névés ou, quelquefois, de lentilles héritées d'un ancien glacier. A cause du fluage de la glace, le matériau constituant le glacier rocheux actif (qu'on pourrait qualifier de « béton de glace ») est susceptible de se mouvoir sur les pentes et de donner des formes de langue… Show more

“…At these altitudes there is high periglacial efficiency in generating landforms derived from the inter‐relationships between diverse processes such as frost‐cracking, nivation, creep and cryoturbation. The geophysical surveys showed evidence of frozen bodies above 2,590 m a.s.l., and sporadic permafrost at exceptionally low altitudes, as in the Telera massif, at around 1,850–2,000 m a.s.l …”

“…In the 1980s significant progress was made in the study of active periglacial processes through the analysis of rock glaciers, but it was not until the 1990s that studies began to deal with frozen grounds, mainly with regard to mountain permafrost. The study of frozen ground increased with the application of analysis and mapping of geomorphological indicators, ground thermal records, geophysical surveys, permafrost distribution mapping and the creation of empirical models as well as ongoing observations of active periglacial processes . Pyrenean permafrost was included in the permafrost map of the northern hemisphere .…”

“…The DC resistivity investigations (Fabré et al, 1995) were performed using an apparatus (MAATEL BM1) and the Schlumberger configuration with three current electrodes. This technique has often been used to estimate permafrost and ice distribution in rock glaciers (Fisch et al, 1978;Haeberli, 1985;Fabré and Evin, 1990).…”

“…The DC resistivity profiles (S1 to S6) were interpreted along with the results of the previous drillings at the rock glacier (Fabré et al, 1995). The rock glacier presents a three-layered structure: a surface active layer of ca.…”
