Internal structure and permafrost characteristics of the rock glaciers of southern carpathians (romania) assessed by geoelectrical soundings and thermal monitoring

Six rock glaciers in the outhern arpathians have been investigated by means of geoelectrical soundings in order to detect their internal stratigraphy and the existence of frozen sediments. In the case of three relict rock glaciers, the electrical resistivity measurements indicated a typical internal...

Summary:Six rock glaciers in the outhern arpathians have been investigated by means of geoelectrical soundings in order to detect their internal stratigraphy and the existence of frozen sediments. In the case of three relict rock glaciers, the electrical resistivity measurements indicated a typical internal structure. Low resistivity values (
