Glacial drainage development controls temporal and spatial fluctuations of sediment flux in Mont Blanc’s North face

Glacial drainage development controls temporal and spatial fluctuations of sediment flux in Mont Blanc’s North face

Present-day global warming raises important issues regarding sediment flux from glaciated catchments. The detrital export from such environments results from erosion processes operating in three geomorphic domains: the supraglacial rockwalls, the ice-covered substratum and the proglacial area, downs...
