Abstract
The purpose of this project is to compile a multidisciplinary review and investigation of the environmental effects produced by
deglaciation of mountainous a nd polar regions worldwide, collected from case studies of areas of particular sensitivity to
climate change (high mountain areas) from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present global-warming-induced melting of
glaciers. For each case study, through analysis of the terrain’s geomorphology, we will deduce the evolution of glacial ice
masses, to infer paleoclimatic trends in each specific situation. From these results, we plan to obtain an absolute chronology
of the climatic changes in different parts of the world through the application of suitable dating methods. The final outcome of
the basic research will be improved knowledge of the Cryosphere’s response to global warming in each area. These results
should allow us to identify areas that may become unstable and pose future mass movement hazards, and they should allow
us also to identify downstream areas where future water shortages could become acute due to loss of glaciers and
permanent snow fields. Such information can also help to improve climate models and refine our understanding of postglacial plant colonization. Proposed experimental sites include mountain ranges of the Iberian Peninsula, other in the
Cascades (USA), other correspond to tropical mountains (Peru) and other more is in the polar latitudes (Iceland and
Antartica). Seven methodologic work packages (WP) will be employed in each selected area, where the Beneficiaries and
Partner Organizations have an important previous experience. The first three WP are related to the basic research: WP.1
Geomorphologic evolution of deglaciated areas; WP 2 The evolution of the Cryosphere; and WP.3 Absolute dating of
deglaciation. The last four are related to the application/implementation? of the results: WP.4 Natural and cultural heritage in
deglaciated areas; WP.5 Mitigation of the effects of deglaciation

PROPOSAL CRYOCRISIS-RISE
1. Summary
The purpose of this project is to compile a multidisciplinary review and investigation of the
environmental effects produced by deglaciation of mountainous a nd polar regions
worldwide, collected from case studies of areas of particular sensitivity to climate change
(high mountain areas) from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present global-warminginduced melting of glaciers. For each case study, through analysis of the WHUUDLQ¶V
geomorphology, we will deduce the evolution of glacial ice masses, to infer paleoclimatic
trends in each specific situation. From these results, we plan to obtain an absolute
chronology of the climatic changes in different parts of the world through the application of
suitable dating methods. The final outcome of the basic research will be improved
knowledge of the Cryosphere¶V response to global warming in each area. These results
should allow us to identify areas that may become unstable and pose future mass movement
hazards, and they should allow us also to identify downstream areas where future water
shortages could become acute due to loss of glaciers and permanent snow fields. Such
information can also help to improve climate models and refine our understanding of postglacial plant colonization. Proposed experimental sites include mountain ranges of the
Iberian Peninsula, other in the Cascades (USA), other correspond to tropical mountains
(Peru) and other more is in the polar latitudes (Iceland and Antartica). Seven methodologic
work packages (WP) will be employed in each selected area, where the Beneficiaries and
Partner Organizations have an important previous experience. The first three WP are
related to the basic research: WP.1 Geomorphologic evolution of deglaciated areas; WP 2
The evolution of the Cryosphere; and WP.3 Absolute dating of deglaciation. The last four
are related to the application/implementation? of the results: WP.4 Natural and cultural
heritage in deglaciated areas; WP.5 Mitigation of the effects of deglaciation in natural
hazards and water resources; With the support of the experienced collaborative teams of the
RISE-Cryocrisis, whose research interests correspond closely to the above mentioned work
packages and to their cutting-edge scientific infrastructures, this project should be able to
accomplish the ambitious objectives described here. In addition, a large number of
Institutions related to land planning activities would benefit from the results of this
proposal.

2. Excellence
2.1 Quality, innovative aspects and credibility of the research (including
inter/multidisciplinary aspects)
Please develop your proposal according to the following lines:
project to the scope
of the call and in relation to the "state of art".
2.1.1. - Hypotheses
This project proposal is based on several steadfast scientific hypotheses that are described
in detail as follows:
a) Geomorphic analysis is a reliable tool for monitoring climate change in a specific area. It
is especially useful in areas where ice masses exist or existed in the form of glaciers or
subsurface ground ice, because the presence of ice leaves evidence in the landforms.
b) The study of the landforms reveals their origin, the climate and the cryospehere
conditions existing at the time of their development.
c) Geomorphic indicators help to reconstruct the paleoclimate for a specific time and
establish reliable statistical criteria such as the glacier Equilibrium Line Altitude or the rock
glacier Initiation Line Altitude, and also provide a reasonable estimate extension of the ice
masses existing on mountain slopes in the past.
d) Modern dating techniques such as lichenometry and dendrochronology are used for
recent time periods while cosmogenic isotopes and thermoluminiscence are used for earlier
ones. The techniques operate with a very small margin of error, and are accurate enough to
date geomorphic elements to determine the existence of ice masses on a mountain at any
given time. The same techniques will be used to evaluate the age of geomorphological
evidences of hazards since they can reveal time frequencies for extreme events.
e) Cause and effect relationships between climate and deglaciation, past and present, and
mass processes are established to identify and prevent future catastrophic events. An
adequate hazard prevention system requires a thorough study of natural processes including
their evolution prior to deglaciation.
f) Mathematical simulation models are a valuable aid to science, because they can detect
natural risks and predict the development of hazardous processes, providing the in-put data
and past conditions reflect true conditions.
g) Archeology may provide complementary information to the geomorphologic knowledge
regarding paleoevironmental issues and deglaciation evolution.
h) A multidisciplinary knowledge of the deglaciation development and the Cryosphere
regression will let us delimit and promote the protection of special geographic areas.
i) The deglaciation knowledge will let us establish an accurate chronology of the vegetal
colonization's phases on new exposed areas and clearly help to the knowledge of the
Biosphere development and the understanding of vegetal series sequence.

2.1.2. Background and previous results
The research groups responsible of RISE-CRYOCRISIS have been pioneer in the study of
deglaciation in the main analyzed areas. Along the five past years several doctorate thesis
about these topics in the study regions have been done by members of the group. The
previous results achieved by the research group represent the first deglaciation chronology
generated in these regions, and development a solid methodology for analysis and prime
approach to the deglaciation effects on solid water reservoirs so as to human habitats' risks
generation in these sectors. As a result of this work, several impact international papers
have been published, and communications in international conferences have been presented
along the past two years, always focused on the deglaciation process and its consequences
in terrestrial ecosystems.
3.1.3 Objectives
7KH SURMHFW¶V PDLQ REMHFWLYH LV VXSSRUWHG E\ VHYHUDO VHFRQGDry ones that are developed
according to a schedule of interim goals for the various stages of the research.
Main Objective
The purpose of this project is to provide a multidisciplinary point of view of the
environmental effects produced by the deglaciation, by analyzing case studies of areas of
particular sensitivity to climate change (high mountain and polar areas) from the Last
Glacial Maximum to the present.
In each study case, through the analysis of its geomorphology (WP1), the project will
deduce the evolution of water resources in the form of ice, to infer paleoclimate specific
situations (WP2). From these results, the project will obtain an absolute chronology of the
paleoenvironmental and paleoclimate situations and geomorphological evidences related to
present-day hazards, through the application of suitable dating methods (WP3). The final
outcome of the basic research will be the knowledge of the CCryosphere evolution and its
environmental effects in each area. The same project will apply these results to the
delimitation of areas of interest for their protection (WP4), to the prevention of natural and
water resources deficit derived from deglaciation (WP5). For this purpose the studied key
areas will be located in contrasted geographic landscapes regarding latitude, climate
conditions, morphostructural conditions, environmental features and land planning.
Secondary Objectives
The main aim includes a series of secondary objectives, associated to Work Packages of the
project:
1. To carry out an accurate geomorphological analysis of deglaciated areas so as to be able
to determine through the landforms the different advance and retreat phases of the
Cryosphereand the relationship between the evolution of the CCryosphere and the
formation of catastrophic erosive processes (WP.1. Geomorphologic evolution of
deglaciated areas).
2. To contribute to a better understanding of climate change in these areas by decoding
information recorded in geomorphological evidence of its impact on the evolution of the
CryosphereCryosphere (WP 2. The evolution of the Cryosphere).

3. To determine the chronology of the deglaciation from the Last Glacial Maximum to the
present day, and the geomorphological evidences of natural hazards, in the selected study
areas by applying absolute dating techniques (WP.3. Absolute dating of deglaciation).
4. To produce an inventory and evaluation of natural and cultural heritage based on the
study and analysis of deglaciation-related geomorphosites, to ensure their conservation and
protection and at the same time promote their sustainable use as a tourist resource (WP.4.
Natural and cultural heritage in deglaciated areas).
5. To analyze the deglaciation effects on water reservoirs and contribute to the prevention
and mitigation of the related risks, basically massive flows (WP.5. Mitigation of the effects
of deglaciation in natural hazards and water resources).
3.1.4 State-of-the-art
For the last 26.000 years the Earth's climate has suffered drastic changes, from the cooling
responsible for the last maximum expansion of the continental ice to the present warming,
passing through several thermal and rainfall pulses, which had been recorded as glacier
fluctuations in high mountain areas at different latitudes. The Hydrosphere, Biosphere, and
geomorpholigical response to these pulses has produced large WUDQVIRUPDWLRQV RQ (DUWK¶V
surface, all this within the chronological framework where the human race expanded and
diversified. The last cold pulse, probably the strongest one of the Holocene, finished in the
middle 19th century and since then the Cryosphere is shrinking and its lower limit receding
upwards in the mountains, with significant environmental consequences. In view of the
need of future scenarios about climate warming, it is highly relevant to determine the
relationship between these variations in the Cryosphere and the evolution of the
atmospheric dynamics that produced them.
The thawing of most of the ice-sheets in the northern hemisphere began between 20,000
and 19,000 years ago, and finally ended around 8,000 years ago, when the ice-sheets
reached their the approximate current volume and extension. However, it is probable that
part of the ice in Western Antarctica continued to melt until very recently; and it is likely to
consider that the retreat of the coastal ice platforms, evident in some areas of Maritime
Antarctica, is simply a continuation of the deglaciation which began approximately twenty
thousand years ago. Much still remains unknown about the start of the last deglaciation. Ice
cores indicate that what occurred in Greenland was sometimes out of step with that which
occurred in the Antarctica. Not even the classic theory that the deglaciation began earlier in
the Northern Hemisphere than in the southern one is altogether clear, since evidence has
been uncovered which indicates that during the course of various interstadials, the Antarctic
warming occurred before that of Greenland. It also seems that in the tropical Andes, the last
deglaciation occurred several thousand years earlier than in the Northern Hemisphere.
The knowledge of the Iberian Peninsula's deglaciation process is still very limited but also
the absolute dating of its chronology is self-contradictory, so the outputs can't be related to
other ones obtained in different European regions. Something similar occurs in tropical

PROPOSAL CRYOCRISIS-RISE
mountains, where primary results are currently being obtained and seem to be difficult to
compare with the polar and temperate areas'. These big gaps in the deglaciation's study
make difficult to understand the reason of the atmospheric dynamic changes that originated
the onset of this process, as well as the current global warming, its future tendencies and the
human-nature interaction role and responsibility involved.
On the other hand, the current deglaciation process supposes a complete transformation of
human habitats but also the natural ones, like; sea level rise, hydrological cycle alteration,
drastic changes in the Biosphere, slopes instability, intensity disturbance of the erosion
processes and, as a result, the global tectonics dynamic transformation. Human beings have
adapted to these changes, but the last century's a huge urban and industrial, development,
represents new challenges, most of them unknown.
In order to achieve valuable general conclusions about environmental consequences of
deglaciation, the study of specific, close cases as the Iberian Peninsula ones and the
contrasted areas like tropical and (sub)polar landscapes is needed.
The aim of the RISE-CRYOCRISIS project is to complete the study of deglaciation in
poorly understood areas and reach specific relevant conclusions for land planning, but also
provide key information to build-up climate change models and prevent possible
catastrophic effects.
The deglaciation study of this project would take place mainly in four geographic sites: the
Iberian Peninsula, the Peruvian Central Andes and Cascades (USA) and the Polar areas of
Iceland and Maritime Antarctica. Currently the deglaciation studies in these places are
taking place, although the first results of the absolute dating show plenty of contradictions,
so different high prestigious research groups are trying to sort them out.
Methodological approach highlighting the types of research and innovation activities
proposed and their originality.
The project is organized into five Working Packages. The first three are related to the basic
research, namely: WP.1.- Geomorphologic evolution of deglaciated areas; WP.2.- The
evolution of the Cryosphere; WP.3.- Absolute dating of deglaciation.
First, the project will select the case studies, depending on the final funding available, using
the following criteria: the research team must already have prior wide-ranging knowledge
of the research area; the central reference mountains must be in the Iberian Peninsula and
the contrasted areas must be in very different environments such as tropical and sub-polar
mountains. In each case study we will investigate the process of deglaciation since the Last
Glacial Maximum to the present. Once the case study has been selected, WP1 will produce
a geomorphological map of the area and use geomorphological criteria to deduce the
morphogenetic phases that have occurred in the area. Special attention will be paid to areas
7

PROPOSAL CRYOCRISIS-RISE
of special geomorphological value, areas with archaeological remains and areas where
catastrophic effects of deglaciation are observed. From the WP1 results, WP2 will deduce
the evolution of water resources in the form of ice within the sector. From this evolution,
the palaeoclimatic parameters associated with the Cryosphere situation in each phase will
be inferred. Using the results from WP 1 and 2, we will establish a direct relationship
between morphogenetic periods, the Cryosphere situation in each period and the
palaeoclimatic parameters, with the archaeological remains in the deglaciated area and the
palaeoenvironmental evidence of these remains. From the results of WP 1, and 2, WP 3 the
research team will select a series of stations within the study area, and apply absolute dating
methods so that an absolute chronology can be assigned to each of the deduced
morphogenetic, cryological, palaeoclimatic and palaeoenvironmental phases. The final
result of the basic research project will be a better understanding of how the Cryosphere
evolved in the study areas together with its main environmental consequences.
The goal of the other packages is to apply the results of this basic research to improve the
land planning taking into account global change dynamics. These packages are: WP.4.Natural and cultural heritage in deglaciated areas; WP.5.- Mitigation of the effects of
deglaciation in natural hazards and water resources. WP5 will use the results of the basic
research (WP 1, 2 and 3) to delimit the areas within each case study which are outstanding
for their high information content on the evolution of the Cryosphere and the related
environmental changes. In these areas, it will apply a methodology to select sites of
maximum ecological interest, leading to their protection and tourist use within a sustainable
economy. WP 5 will use the results of the basic research to identify hazard areas related to
e deglaciation process, basically the risk of mass flow formation.

Inter/multidisciplinary types of knowledge involved, if applicable.
The methodology for the project is consists of an innovative multi-proxy approach , with
several complementary techniques to analyze different aspects of the hydrology, climate,
meteorology, topography, ground physics, liquid state physics, glaciers, snow, permafrost,
sediments, geomorphology, dating techniques, the dynamics of landscape and land use
planning. Research data will be integrated in a common data base linked to a GIS, which
makes it easier to attain project objectives. Once the methodology is verified for the
geographic domain chosen for the research, it can be extrapolated to other deglaciated
areas.
The cornerstone of the project is the collaboration among researchers from Europe and
America, all experts in the project disciplines. The project will also assist land planning
agencies in each country by applying the results to local efforts to manage/assist in the
environmental consequences of the deglaciation process.
Dervied from our findings, the international scientific community would acquire an
integrated research model for deglaciation and land use planning. Scientists from countries
affected by deglaciation processes could participate in the project as an incentive to
continue their research in this field. Efforts should be made to support sustainable
development in communities affected by deglaciation by providing them knowledge about
natural resources and procedures to mitigate the associated risks.
Mass slope processes derived from deglaciation are among the most dangerous natural
hazards, because they have the highest fatality rate and cause the greatest property damage.
The integrated model developed by this project is a tool that can help control these
processes by analyzing water reserves, climatic change and past catastrophic events, to
predict future events and their ecological and social impact. The information compiled by
the project will provide land use planners with knowledge about the risks to communities,
and will assist them in finding ways to mitigate the effects.
The results will be updated in real time as the project progresses and will be posted at
https://www.ucm.es/gfam. This page is also linked to other deglaciation prevention
networks. Papers and conferences will be presented at national and international forums and
articles will be published in international scientific journals. An international convention on
deglaciation will be organized and a compendium of the papers presented will be published.

PROPOSAL CRYOCRISIS-RISE
2.2 Clarity and quality of knowledge sharing among the participants in
light of the research and innovation objectives
Please develop your proposal according to the following lines:
Approach and methodology used for knowledge sharing.
WP 1. GEOMORPHOLOGICAL EVOLUTION OF DEGLACIATED AREAS
Geomorphology studies the EDUWK¶Vsurface to identify and classify the relief depending on
its origin, morphology, modelling processes, evolutionary stages and age. This means that
an analysis of the geomorphological evolution of selected deglaciated areas is the first step
to differentiate a series of natural processes determined by climate and the Cryosphere,
which are shown in superimposed relief landforms. These landforms show the possible
effects of glaciation in catastrophic erosive processes on the human habitat and on ground
stability and colonization by vegetation.
The main aim of this WP is to carry out a geomorphological analysis of deglaciated areas
so as to be able to determine through the landforms: the different expansion vs shrinkin
phases of the Cryosphere; the relationship between the evolution of the Cryosphere and the
formation of catastrophic erosive processes; the relationship between the geomorphologic
evolution and human settlement; and the relationship between the evolution of the
Cryosphere, ground stability and plant colonization.
WP 2: EVOLUTION OF THE CRYOSPHERE
The main aim of this WP is to contribute to a better understanding of climate change by
decoding information recorded in geomorphological evidence of its impact on the evolution
of the Cryosphere. The evolution of the Cryosphere (glaciers, rock glaciers, permafrost and
snow cover) is a key factor in our global understanding of climate change. The data
obtained from these ice masses can be contrasted with equivalent information from other
latitudes and a wide range of palaeoclimatic proxies (palaeotemperature of the ocean
VXUIDFH į18 rate in glacial ice cores, lacustrine sediments, potential palaeovegetation,
pollen records, archaeological evidence, etc). To observe the Cryosphere evolution,
parameters must be measured which reflect its changes over time. To do this, WP2 will use
four geo-indicators:
a) Equilibrium Line Altitude of glaciers (ELA) and palaeoglaciers (palaeoELA): The ELA
or palaeoELA is an isohypse (m) which separates the accumulation and ablation zones of a
glacier or palaeoglacier, where the mass balance is in equilibrium (b=0 mm). ELAs and
palaeoELAs can be reconstructed using different techniques, with the Area x Altitude
Balance Ratio-AABR statistical method obtaining the best results. The ELA is a statistical
concept which must be linked to a date (ELAs) or absolute dating of a glacial phase
(palaeoELAs).
b) Rock-glacier Initiation Line Altitude (RILA or palaeoRILA): Rock glaciers are rock
masses with interstitial ice which slide downslope from the effect of gravity. One of the
effects of global warming is the deactivation of rock glaciers as a result of the elevation of
the annual 0ºC isotherm. The interstitial ice disappears, thus overlying rock masses stabilize
and transform into paleo rock palaeoglaciers. The main parameter for interpreting the
palaeoclimatic significance of this process is to evaluate the Rock-glacier Initiation Line
Altitude (RILA or palaeoRILA). Producing detailed maps delimiting the rock glaciers or
palaeoglaciers in a Geographical Information System (GIS) enables RILAs and

palaeoRILAs to be identified automatically, combining the corresponding layer with the
Digital Terrain Model (DTM).
c) Permafrost: the presence or absence of permafrost (sub-surface layers of permanent ice)
is also a geo-indicator of climate evolution. Its space and time distribution can be evaluated
by monitoring the ground temperature which allows non-frost days, permanent frost days
and freeze-thaw cycles to be precisely quantified.
d) Snow cover: depending on the altitude and latitude of high mountain areas, precipitation
occurs during part or all of the year in the form of snow. Research on snow cover is
particularly useful because as well as acting as a climate change geo-indicator, it plays an
important role in thermal insulation, affecting ground temperature distribution and freezethaw cycle related periglacial processes. The evolution of snow cover can be seen from
aerial photos, orthophotos, satellite images and field photographs.
WP. 3. DEGLACIATION AND NATURAL HAZARDS ABSOLUTE DATING
The main aim of this WP is to determine the chronology of deglaciation from the Last
Glacial Maximum to the present day in the selected study areas applying absolute dating
techniques. The changes in the global climate system over the last 2.6 Ma are defined to a
large extent by the advance and retreat of the ice masses on different spatial scales. To
study these variations it is essential to present time coordinates, to obtain a landscape
evolution sequence corresponding to climate variations. Modern absolute dating techniques
are now being successfully applied to define the chronology of glacier evolution from the
Last Glacial Maximum until the present. In this context, e.g., Balco (2011) reviews the
application of cosmogenic-nuclide exposure dating techniques to glacier chronology over
the last 20 years. The results obtained include glacial chronologies obtained in mountain
areas where the landforms are practically the only evidence of climate changes.
Luminescence dating techniques have also been used to reconstruct deglaciation
chronology (Raukas et al., 2010). Dendrochronology is another absolute dating technique
used to establish the chronology of geomorphic surfaces and determine climate changes.
The time range measured is from 0 - 10 ka, obtaining very accurate results. This technique
has recently also been applied to dating the advance and retreat of moraines during the
Holocene; to the reconstruction of the glacial mass balance; and to the variability of the
Equilibrium Line Altitude (dendroglaciology) (Wood et al. 2011). Finally, in alpine rock
ecosystems lichenometric techniques are used to date surfaces recently exposed to
colonization. This method has been successfully used to date moraines and rock surfaces
exposed by glacial retreat (Wiles et al. 2010). Furthermore, these techniques also allow to
obtain the ages of geomorphological evidences of natural hazards.
WP.4. NATURAL HERITAGE IN DEGLACIATED AREAS.
The aim is to produce an inventory and evaluation of natural and cultural heritage based on
the study and analysis of deglaciation-related geomorphosites, to ensure their conservation
and protection and at the same time promote their sustainable use as a tourist resource.
Mountain areas are some of the most important Protected Natural Areas of significant value
in terms of natural or cultural heritage. However, the outstanding natural value of these
areas makes them fragile environments, especially sensitive to natural or human threats.
This means that e.g. the effects of climate change may result in an appreciable loss of water
resources or increased natural risks deriving from rapid deglaciation. On the other hand, the
13

PROPOSAL CRYOCRISIS-RISE
lack of appropriate planning for these areas, which generally have high tourist potential,
may lead to adverse environmental impact and the resulting deterioration of natural and
cultural resources.
Within the diversity of natural heritage, relief is the feature underpinning other natural
resources and is a main attraction (Serrano et al., 2009). In this context, a relief landform

its value is also cultural, archaeological, ecological and socioeconomic (Reynard et al.,
2007).
Over the last ten years an increasing number of natural heritage studies have been published
with special relevance to inventory and evaluation methods applied to sites of
geomorphological interest (Carcavilla et al., 2007; Panizza, 2001, Reynard et. al. 2007),

in the Iberian Peninsula (Trueba and Serrano, 2008; Gómez Ortiz et al., 2013).
WP.5.- MITIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF DEGLACIATION IN NATURAL
HAZARDS AND WATER RESOURCES.
The aim of this WP is to analyze the deglaciation effects on water reservoirs and contribute
to the prevention and mitigation of the related risks, basically massive flows.
The global climate change is expected to affect the performance of water resource systems
according to current indicators and findings (IPCC, 2007). An alteration in the climate
could change the resource capacity as well as the pattern by which the resource is used by
the adjacent population. On the other hand, numerous studies indicate that both the climate
and the socioeconomic vulnerability to weather and climate extremes are changing
(Downton et al., 2005; Pielke et al., 2008).
The related effects and impacts are particularly relevant on high mountain environments
where climate change can suppose the reduction of water reserves and might determine the
hazard associated with slope processes specially hydrovolcanic ones. In response to the
potential threats societies should increase their capacity by effective risk prevention and
land management.
In this context, it is extremely important to find out how the deglaciation affects water
resources and influence the frequency and magnitude of hydrovolcanic related risks.
This risk assessment and mitigation should be done with a multidisciplinary approach
including climatic, geographical, geological, urban planning and engineering aspects.
Consequently this WP has to interact with almost all the project WPs in order to build risk
scenarios and to get the necessary input data. The main objective is to apply empirical and
numerical models (SPH, LaharZ & Titan2D) to simulate potential massive flows related to
the deglaciation and to calculate their speed, thickness and extension. The models results
will be used in risk zoning prevention and mitigation.

The main aim of this WP is to transmit the information generated by WP 1, 2, 3 and 4 to
contrast the monitoring carried out by the network with past climatic situations, to improve
climate evolution models and forecast scenarios for climate change.
One of the primary interests in the numerical simulation of Earth systems on many
temporal and spatial scales is to develop, test, and adapt physical parameterizations and
numerical implementations for processes not resolved by the overall numerical schemes.
This is particularly true for the boundary layer processes which are at the centre of the
investigations of the participating groups.

3. Impact
RISE-CRYOCRISIS impact will take place at four levels: a) Better understanding of the
cryosphere evolution in each area. b) Application of basic research results to improve the
land planning. c) Communication and dissemination of the results and conclusions. d)
Enhancing human resources skills and provide new career perspectives.
3.1 Enhancing research and innovation-related human resources, skills, and working
conditions to realize the potential of individuals and to provide new career perspectives
The opportunity of RISE-CRYOCRISIS is to bring together highly qualified partners from
academic and non-DFDGHPLF VHFWRUV 1*2¶V DGPLQLVWUDWLRQ Htc.) dealing with most
aspects of environmental effects of deglaciation.
In this regard the Project will allow to acquire the necessary skills and knowledge to
develop various doctoral theses and make new synergies among institutions. This will be
reflected in high impact scientific papers (SCI journals, technical reports, etc.). For this, the
following activities will be carried out: 1) Scientists exchange will allow knowledge
transfer inside the RISE-CRYOCRISIS network. Special attention will be given to young
scientists exchanges allowing them to visit partner institutions for a period of 6-12
months/year. Therefore scientific careers of young researchers will strengthen both the
learning of basic investigation, and applicable methods and technics in the private sector
(laboratory and administration). 2) One of the tasks of senior researchers during their stay
will be to give a short course either to the hosting researchers and/or to the general public.
Workshops will be organized regularly to ensure knowledge transfer inside the RISECRYOCRISIS project. 3) Cryocrisis final conference: At the last year of RISECRYOCRISIS, a multidisciplinary assembly among participants and institutions will be
organized, with dual purpose: a) to present the results and state of knowledge about
³HQYLURQPHQWDOHIIHFWVRIWKHFU\RVSKHUHHYROXWLRQ´EDVVHVVWKHLPSDFWRIWKHQHWZRUNRQ
knowledge transfer and technical innovation and the development of multidisciplinary
skills of the researchers involved. 4) Virtual courses based on the RISE-CRYOCRISIS
website will be organized. Enhance the initiative and skills of young researchers in relation
to the preparation of scientific papers from the initial approach to reflect the results in
scientific journals and conference presentations. All the reports, papers, communication in
congresses, books and audiovisual material produced by RISE-CRYOCRISIS partners will
be stored in the project website. In this way the knowledge generated will be available to
students, researchers, teachers and general public.
3.2 To develop new and lasting research collaborations, to achieve transfer of knowledge
between research institutions and to improve research and innovation potential at the
European and global levels
RISE-CRYOCRISIS project deals with the environmental effects produced by deglaciation
of mountainous regions worldwide, collected from case studies of areas of particular sensitivity
to climate change (high mountain areas) from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present
global-warming-induced melting of glaciers.

Thus, the knowledge transfer, grouped in 7 WP's, will allow to consolidate the cooperation
and exchange among network participants. This shall be carried out at both basic research
related to the evolution of cryosphere and applied research related to environmental effects:
(i) Better understanding of the cryosphere evolution in each area: Through analysis of the

response to global warming in each area is the most important impact which will be
produced by RISE-CRYOCRISIS project. Improvements on understanding of cryosphere
evolution will allow the mitigation of deglaciation environmental effects.
(ii) Application of basic research results to improve the land planning: The impact of the
DSSOLHG UHVHDUFK :3¶V ZLOO EH WR HQVXUH GHJODFLDWLRQ-related geomorphosite conservation
and promote their sustainable use as a tourist resource (WP4), to contribute to the
prevention and mitigation of the deglaciation related risks (WP5), to improve climate
change models (WP6) and to improve our understanding of post-glacial plant colonization.
For this purpose the study of key areas will be located in contrasted geographic landscapes
by latitude, morphostructural conditions, environmental properties and land planning.
3.3 Effectiveness of the proposed measures for communication and results dissemination
One of the priorities of the RISE-CRIOCRYSIS network is the communication of results
through publications in scientific and technical journals and in dissemination magazines
that shows the active participation of the different members of each institution.
Also, the results of the different studies were presented at scientific conferences, national
and especially international, among which may be mentioned the prestigious annual
meeting of Earth Sciences (EGU), the International Conference on Geomorphology, or
specific meetings related to the topics of the RISE-CRIOCRYSIS (e.g. International
Permafrost Association).
It is expected, publishing articles in specialized journals (high impact journals) in each of
the subject areas defined in the WP´s. Also, the dissemination of results will be made in
divulgate journals, such as National Geographic, Ecosystems, Natural History, All-Science,
etc., so that the achievements of the RISE-CRIOCRYSIS network reach to the people in
general. The aim is to provide greater environmental awareness of the problem of
deglaciation and the value of geomorphological heritage of the areas studied. Also, RISECRIOCRYSIS network prepare a biannual bulletin to ensure the progress of each group or
individual researchers (realized exchange tasks performed, achievements, etc.). From these
bulletins reports to participating institutions will be issued.
Also, in nowadays society, controlled by digital communications technology (websites,
social networks, etc.), website-database and audiovisual products are chosen as main
diffusion channels. The website-database is a digital platform that includes the project
goals. The content is referred to: participants, activities carried out, study areas, scientific
papers, multimedia information and electronic resources. Furthermore, the website is posed
as a communication forum among WP, who can access and store research data developed
by RISE-CRYOCRISIS project. This data exchange guarantee knowledge transfer and
ideas exchange. Other of the channels consists of the development of audiovisual products,
which present an educational nature. Thematic documentaries are proposed as the main
products; they will be recorded in study areas, and are addressed to scientific community

resources availability, climatic change and natural hazards (lahars).
Traditional media will also be used for the dissemination of the results, by leaflets,
workshops and press. The project content (goals, results and fieldwork campaigns) would
be presented by printing leaflets with promotional and information purposes. On the other
hand, the methodological content of the methods applied for the research will be included
in technical reports for each study area. Workshops are posed as an information
transference way, and will be managed by WP coordinators. Academic and non-academic
institutions will participate in these workshops. At last, the most important and useful
information for the society will appear in press according to maximum diffusion principle.
Among available information, the related to natural hazards and water resources will take
preference.
It is important to notice that above described impacts (understanding, conservation,
mitigation and communication) will address several important social groups: (i) Scientific
and Technical; (ii) Decision makers at several levels (ministries, regional and local
government); (iii) Stake holders and population living in mountain areas.

4. Implementation: Management structure and procedures
WP 1. GEOMORPHOLOGICAL EVOLUTION OF DEGLACIATED AREAS
The WP 1 research will start by producing a detailed geomorphological map of the
deglaciated area and relevant adjoining sectors, to deduce the main deglaciation phases and
later morphogenetic periods. The most important feature will be the genetic classification
of landforms. Wherever necessary, a sedimentological analysis will be carried out to
classify the origin of the deposits. This map will be used to calculate the area and volume of
the landforms and accumulations of ice detected, essential for evaluating the cryosphere
evolution and the magnitude of the catastrophic erosive processes. Particular attention will
be paid to the representation of the drainage channels for the fusion waters deriving from
the glaciation (deglaciation channels), and their monitoring to calculate the intensity of the
erosive-sedimentary processes and to obtain the hydric parameters of the catastrophic flows
which run through them.

PROPOSAL CRYOCRISIS-RISE
WP 2. CRYOSPHERE EVOLUTION
To observe the Cryosphere evolution, parameters must be measured which reflect its
changes over time. To do this, WP2 will use four geo-indicators:
a) Equilibrium Line Altitude of glaciers (ELA) and palaeoglaciers (palaeoELA): The ELA
or palaeoELA is an isohypse (m) which separates the accumulation and ablation zones of a
glacier or palaeoglacier, where the mass balance is in equilibrium (b=0 mm). ELAs and
palaeoELAs can be reconstructed using different techniques, with the Area x Altitude
Balance Ratio-AABR statistical method obtaining the best results. The ELA is a statistical
concept which must be linked to a date (ELAs) or absolute dating of a glacial phase
(palaeoELAs).
b) Rock-glacier Initiation Line Altitude (RILA or palaeoRILA): Rock glaciers are rock
masses with interstitial ice which slide downslope from the effect of gravity. One of the
effects of global warming is the deactivation of rock glaciers as a result of the elevation of
the annual 0ºC isotherm. The interstitial ice disappears, thus overlying rock masses stabilize
and transform into paleo rock palaeoglaciers. The main parameter for interpreting the
palaeoclimatic significance of this process is to evaluate the Rock-glacier Initiation Line
Altitude (RILA or palaeoRILA). Producing detailed maps delimiting the rock glaciers or
palaeoglaciers in a Geographical Information System (GIS) enables RILAs and
palaeoRILAs to be identified automatically, combining the corresponding layer with the
Digital Terrain Model (DTM).
c) Permafrost: the presence or absence of permafrost (sub-surface layers of permanent ice)
is also a geo-indicator of climate evolution. Its space and time distribution can be evaluated
by monitoring the ground temperature which allows non-frost days, permanent frost days
and freeze-thaw cycles to be precisely quantified.
d) Snow cover: depending on the altitude and latitude of high mountain areas, precipitation
occurs during part or all of the year in the form of snow. Research on snow cover is
particularly useful because as well as acting as a climate change geo-indicator, it plays an
important role in thermal insulation, affecting ground temperature distribution and freezethaw cycle related periglacial processes. The evolution of snow cover can be seen from
aerial photos, orthophotos, satellite images and field photographs.
With this strategy, this WP contribute to a better understanding of climate change by
decoding information recorded in geomorphological evidence of its impact on the evolution
of the cryosphere and obtain the follows aims:
1. Identify evidence of the impact of climate change on the cryosphere, using
geomorphological maps (WP1)., 2. Define the current climate through representative
climate series and bioclimatic diagrams for each territorial area. 3. Produce palaeoclimatic
reconstruction of the test areas, in the phases defined by archaeological research (WP3) and
absolute dating (WP4)., 4. Propose a model to explain the evolution of the cryosphere and
climate in each test area with WP3, by comparing the results obtained and contrasting them
with other evidence on regional and global scales.

WP. 3. DEGLACIATION AND NATURAL HAZARDS ABSOLUTE DATING
The main aim of this WP is to determine the chronology of deglaciation from the Last
Glacial Maximum to the present day in the selected study areas applying absolute dating
techniques. The specific objectives are as follows: 1.- Obtain an accurate understanding of
the advance and retreat of moraine ridges using cosmogenic dating techniques. 2.- Relate
different deglaciation phases to temporal records of fluvio-glacial deposits, applying
thermoluminescence absolute dating techniques. 3.- Establish a time-based relationship
between deglaciation processes and vegetation colonization using lichenometric and
dendrochronological techniques. 4.- Propose a time sequence model for deglaciation in
each area studied . 4. Research method and strategy
The proposed methodology is based on the application of four absolute dating techniques
which will be applied considering the different evidence which may be found (vegetation,
rock surfaces, blocks, fluvio-glacial deposits) and the date range possibilities offered by
each method. On the other hand, by using different methods the aim is to obtain estimates
which are both strictly chronological and which can be validated with each other.
The methodological procedure will be divided into different phases:
A.- Selection of test sampling areas. The work already carried out by WP 1, 2 and 3 will be
the basis for selecting the specific sampling sites, to ensure that these are relevant to the
study. The samples will be extracted from in situ rock surfaces (abrasion thresholds) or
from large stable blocks (moraines, rock glaciers).
B.- Sample extraction . At least 500g of rock will be obtained directly from the surface at
each sampling point. The following characteristics of the sampling point will also be
recorded: slope, orientation, altitude, geographical coordinates; possible depth of previously
eroded rock from the configuration of the geomorphological unit and the estimated
shielding effect, which causes reduced radiation due to the surrounding relief, the
vegetation, soil and snow cover.
C.- Processing the samples The physical processing of the samples will start in the LABUCM, where the rock samples extracted will be ground and sieved to select 200g samples.
Then LAB-Prime (USA) will determine the percentage of each chemical element,
especially the measurement of the 36Cl isotope concentration, using particle acceleration
mass spectrometry (AMS). The percentage of trace elements present will be obtained in
ACT-LABS (Canada).
D.- Determining the exposure age. The isotopic percentages obtained in the chemical
processing of samples will be processed with CHLOE software (Phillips & Plummer, 1996,
version 3 - 2003) and with the CRONUS program ±version 36Cl-. The calculations accept
the 36Cl production rate; scaling factor for latitude and altimetry; the effect of shade,
vegetation, snow, burns and variations of the magnetic field proposed or referred to by
Gosse & Phillips (2001). The estimated surface erosion rate is between 0 and 5 mm per
1000 years. From this premise, the exposure age of the sample surface will be obtained.

WP.4. NATURAL AND CULTURAL HERITAGE IN DEGLACIATION
This study of the natural and cultural heritage will be carried out following the
methodology recently proposed by various authors (Reynard et al., 2007, González-Trueba
and Serrano, 2008, García-Cortés and Carcavilla, 2009, Serrano et. al, 2009). The
methodology will be divided into a series of phases:
Phase 1: Geomorphosite identification and inventory
This initial phase will include: a) Analysis and interpretation of geomorphological maps
produced by WP1, information on cryosphere evolution (WP 2), archaeological remains
(WP 3) and absolute dating of landforms (WP4), which together with photos, aerial photos
and field-based study, will enable the location and definition of geomorphosites of
significant natural and cultural value. b) Processing and management of the geomorphosite
maps in a GIS with the corresponding database. c) Obtaining geomorphosite visibility maps
using a GIS. The Digital Terrain Model (DTM) will be used to define viewsheds to ensure
optimal topographical observation points.
Phase 2: Geomorphosite analysis and evaluation.
This phase will include geomorphosite analysis and evaluation based on scientific,
ecological, landscape and cultural criteria. Finally socio-economic criteria will also be
considered, with a view to the geomorphosite use and management. These basic criteria
will in turn be defined through a series of parameters, evaluated and rated on a semiTXDQWLWDWLYH VFDOH VLPLODU WR WKDW XVHG LQ WKH PHWKRGRORJLFDO GRFXPHQW ³GRFXPento
metodológico para la elaboración del Inventario Español de Lugares de Interés Geológico
(García-Cortés and Carcavilla, 2009), and in other scientific proposals for classifying and
evaluating geomorphosites (Reynard et. al., 2007).
Evaluation parameters used to define the importance of a geomorphosite: a) Scientific. The
scientific value is the result of the evaluation of the geomorphological importance of each
geomorphosite, depending on to what extent it is representative and unique in terms of the
deglaciation of the region, its conservation level, exceptional features and palaeoclimatic
and archaeological significance. b) Ecological. This parameter evaluates the importance of
the geomorphosite depending on its significance within the vegetation colonization process
of deglaciated areas. c) Aesthetic. This criterion evaluates the visual quality of each
geomorphosite. The visibility maps produced in the previous phase will allow the
observation conditions of each geomorphosite to be defined and evaluated in relation to its
environment. d) Cultural. The cultural value of each geomorphosite will be evaluated using
the method proposed by Reynard et al. (2007
Phase 3. Producing evaluation cards and maps for the geomorphosites. In this final phase
combined fact files will be produced, containing the information, mapping and evaluation
for each geomorphosite. These documents will be passed to the relevant management
bodies, to inform decision-making for the geomorphosite management, use and
conservation.

General purpose is to analyze the deglaciation effects on water reservoirs and contribute to
the prevention and mitigation of the related risks, basically massive flows. With specific
objectives: 1- Characterize the status and evolution of water reservoirs but also identify the
deglaciation impacts on them. 2- Identify and quantify deglaciation's potential threats,
namely referred to massive flows. 3- Apply simulation models to risk's maps development.
4- Study the affected areas vulnerability based on detected hazards.
There are six specific work lines in this work package:

Risk management
The quality management of this project consists of several control tasks to guarantee that
the project is consistent during all the phases. The main planned control tasks are:
- Original scientific content and quality: Verification that all the produced scientific content
is original and high quality.
- Periodicity of publications: Publications must be realized during all the phases of the
project.
- Punctuality and term accomplishment of the activity schedule: All activities must be
realized on time, papers submitted when provided and communications of the results made
punctually.
- Quality review of the papers and communication of the results: The papers and
communications will be reviewed by several internal reviewers before publication.
The risk management of this project is planned for identify the possible risks and assess,
monitor and mitigate them as far as possible. Starting from a detailed planning of all the
activities of the project, potential risks that may appear during the realization of the
activities must be identifyed and classified by type and probability of occur. Once a risk has
been identified and categorized by type and probability, the impact has to be calculated in
order to establish the mitigation strategy. Before the mitigation plan a risk analysis
(quantitative and qualitative) has to be done, including a contingency time and costs. After
applying a mitigation strategy a monitoring of the risk has to be realized, trying to know the
risk triggers, determining whether the strategy applied is valid and carrying out corrective
actions if necessary. Conflict resolution will be dealt with at the immediate superior level to
where it appears. Task leaders will solve problems within the task and Work Package coordinators
within the WPs.

Gonçalo Vieira is Associate Professor at the Institute of Geography and Spatial Planning of
the University of Lisbon and senior researcher at the Centre for Geographical Studies, in the
research group on Climate Change and Environmental Dynamics, where he coordinates the
Geocryology team. He has coordinated several permafrost and periglacial research projects in
the Antarctic and in the Portuguese mountains, and is involved in research in Svalbard and
sub-Arctic Canada.
The researchers of the Institute of Geography and Spatial Planning (IGOT) participating in
this proposal form part of the Geocryology research group, which has coordinated several
research projects during the last years. Within these projects, the team has acquired cuttingedge scientific equipment both for polar and mountain regions, such as drillers, UAV, remote
sensing laboratory, DGPS, reistivimeters, coring systems for lacustrine and terrestrial
sedimentary archives, etc. It is expected that this equipment will be used in some of the
activities of the RISE project.
As part of the University of Lisbon, the IGOT members have free access to a complete set of
infrastructures that are fully available for the success of the project. IGOT researchers
involved in this proposal collaborate intensely with researchers from the Faculty of Sciences
and benefit from the cutting-edge laboratories existing in this school. These laboratories are
fully equipped for palaeoenvironmental and palaeoecological studies, including facilities for
determining XRF, XRD, organic matter and stable isotopes grain size, magnetic properties,
etc.
Besides, the IGOT through the Geocryology research group, also coordinates the
Portuguese Polar Program (PROPOLAR). This project is responsible for providing logistical
and technical support to Portuguese researchers working in Polar regions and promoting
research in polar regions in collaboration with other international partners. Regarding the
proposed activities of RISE, the previous experience of this group on several key issues for
conducting research in polar regions (logistics, environmental authorizations, medical
permissions, cargo, etc) will be of crucial importance for ENSOANTAR.
