Live webcams for permafrost monitoring

This long-term project aims at monitoring the evolution of different periglacial landforms located in the Swiss Western Alps (Valais). Four webcams are currently surveying the Yettes Condjà rock glacier (Nendaz), the Lac des Vaux periglacial lobes (Verbier), the Tsarmine rock glacier and the Col des Gentianes ice-cored moraine (Verbier-Nendaz). The images collected allow us detecting changes over short and long periods.
