- The alpine glacial and periglacial environment is a sensitive indicator of climate change, and
is promptly reacting to atmospheric warming. Several instability processes which have been
recently reported from high altitude alpine areas can reasonably be considered as first effects
of accelerated climate change on cryospheric systems and can thus also represent significant
terrestrial indicators of climate change, besides their significant socio-economic,
environmental and hazard impacts. These phenomena are, in many cases, poorly documented,
as they often occur in remote, uninhabited areas. This paper presents a review of
geomorphological processes, distinguished by typology, that have been documented, mostly
in the Italian Alps, since the beginning of the 21th century. The impacts of these processes on
natural resources and hazard have been discussed; suitable investigation techniques and
research needs for process understanding and monitoring have been analysed. This
information is essential in order to build reliable scenarios for glacial and periglacial areas
evolution and to supply technicians and decision makers with effective tools to improve
hazard assessment and natural resources management. (literal)
