Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Toward a unified understanding of alpine landscape dynamics, we compared a series of geomorphic processes between V-shaped valley (Japanese Alps) and U-shaped valley (Swiss Alps), through multi-method onsite monitoring and remote-sensing analysis of contemporary processes, and recent slope history constrained by tree injuries. In V-shaped valleys, high resolution monitoring shows the triggering conditions of mass movements, and the significance of the amount of unstable debris in the catchment in controlling debris transport. In U-shaped valleys, our analysis highlights the instability of glaciers and permafrost which contributes to slope dynamics, as well as the link between the timing, trigger and character of rockfalls and debris flows. Geological structure and geomorphic history combine to determine the distribution of slope gradients, which produces the contrasting valley systems.
