Rock glacier outlines were manually digitised and a total of 488 were identified,which cover a total area of c. 59 km2. The lower limits of intact and fossil rock glaciers are at c. 4300 m asl and 4100m asl, respectively. Because rock glaciers are protected by law in Argentina, the inventory provides an importantbasis for political decision-making about water resources and for further periglacial and environmental studies in thisregion., 資料番号: PA1410037000}, pages = {69--75}, title = {Rock Glacier Inventory of the Valles Calchaquies Region (~ 25°S), Salta, Argentina, Derived from ALOS Data}, volume = {25}, year = {2014} }
