Resumen:
A new IPA Action Group (2018-2020) is intending to promote the integration of permafrost creep rates (rock glacier kinematics) as a new associated parameter to the Essential Climate Variable (ECV) Permafrost within the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) initiative supported by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), characterizing the evolution of mountain permafrost on the global scale. The main scopes of this group are to sustain the first steps toward the organization and the management of a network dedicated to rock glacier mapping (inventorying) and monitoring all around the world and the definition of the necessary standards.
