This volume includes nine fully reviewed
papers presented in the fifth session of the VI
International Conference onf Geomorphology in Zaragoza,
Spain.
Five of the papers are concerned with rock
glaciers, landforms that consist of valley-filling masses
of angular rock blocks, the exact origin of which is still
subject of debate (Rock glaciers in N-Iceland, Lithology
and distribution, shallow active layer temperatures and DC
resistivity of rock glaciers, monitoring rock glacier
dynamics by geomatic methods).
Other papers deal with snow cover dynamics of
Mediterranean mountains, soil toposequences, block fields
beneath pleistocene ice fields and advances of numerical
dating of Quaternary glaciations in China.
