The effect of topography, latitude, and lithology on rock glacier distribution in the Lemhi Range, central Idaho, USA

Statistical analysis of rock glaciers in the Lemhi Range demonstrates that their development and preservation is controlled primarily by annual insolation and lithology. We inspected 171 alpine valleys in the Lemhi Range using optical remote sensing techniques, digital topographic analysis, and fiel...
