Short summary
Glacier-permafrost interactions in Alpine environments influence geomorphological processes, making it essential to understand the relationship between subsurface structures and surface morphodynamics for predicting landscape evolution under climate change. This study uses applied geophysics and remote sensing methods to investigate this relationship and to reveal the distribution of different ground ice types, as well as the related surface morphodynamics in three alpine glacier forefields.
