Weathering – rock fall(frequency - intensity)
Waldner and Hallet 1987
Thermal regime and steep slopes =
stabilization or something comes down
Slope stability – rock slides(stabilizes – destabilizes)

Modelling assumptions:
Steep walls >= 60o
MAAT <= -2oC
Glacially-shaped valley type
Cirque back-wall type
“Tectonic” nappes type
River incision type
• We monitor almost 25 rock wall sites in
Norway and use the data to improve country-
wide empirical rock wall temperatures models

1. Choice of suitable data: - 31 measurement points of mean annual RST
(including 1 year for 11/12 sensors installed in 2015
and 5 years for the 4 Jotunheimen sensors installed in 2010)
2. Choice of model and determination of potential predictors:- Linear regression (residuals are normally distributed)
- Multicollinerarity, significance of the predictors
Permafrost modelling: statistical approach
3. Statistical model: MARST = 9.325 **
- Latitude × 1.197e-06**
+ MAAT × 1.139***
+ PISRyear× 9.236e-03 ***
statistical signifance (p-value): 0: ***; 0.1: **
R2 = 0.9
4. Permafrost probability:- Cumulative distribution function (mean=0, σ =1.85)
- Percentage of chance that the MARST ≤ 0°C

Romsdal : North faces > 1210 m asl., South faces > 1600 m asl.
Lower limit of permafrost probability > 50%

We will now use a simple 2D heat-conduction model set-up to
evaluate some thermal constraints which might be important for
geomorphological processes in steep slopes in cold environments

The rock wall case
![Page 21: PowerPoint Presentation · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: bernde_adm Created Date: 12/14/2017 10:30:51 AM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071216/6047e98e8849c114403a1499/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Thick snow cover
Thin snow cover
Intermediate snow cover
Glacier cover
• Geometry of permafrost area strongly
related so snow cover in this setting
• Rock walls cool adjacent areas by
influencing heat flow direction
• May facilitate cold glacier marginal
areas with associated influence to
glacial landform genesis

• Thermal history depending on deglaciation history
• For today comparable sites (topography, climate,
permafrost distribution) the thermal history might
have been different.
• This may influence the development of unstable rock
walls

Modelled maximum shear strain at Skjerdingstindane
• The thermal history may influence when a failure occur,
or what type of movement and failures dominate
• Hypotheses can be tested by numerical modelling
and/or dating of slip faces, using e.g. CN dating
• The thermal regime influence landslide behavior, and
therefore is a factor for landform and landscape
development.© B. Jacobs, TU Munich
