Patterns of precursory rockfall prior to slope failure (2007)
Journal Article
Rosser, N., Lim, M., Petley, D., Dunning, S., & Allison, R. (2007). Patterns of precursory rockfall prior to slope failure. Journal of Geophysical Research, 112(F4), https://doi.org/10.1029/2006jf000642

In this paper we examine data generated using high-resolution three-dimensional laser scanning monitoring of coastal rock cliffs. These data are used to identify spatial and temporal patterns in rockfall activity behavior prior to slope failure. Anal... Read More about Patterns of precursory rockfall prior to slope failure.

Terrestrial laser scanning for monitoring the process of hard rock coastal cliff erosion (2005)
Journal Article
Rosser, N., Petley, D., Lim, M., Dunning, S., & Allison, R. (2005). Terrestrial laser scanning for monitoring the process of hard rock coastal cliff erosion. Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, 38(4), 363-375. https://doi.org/10.1144/1470-9236/05-008

Hard rock cliffs represent approximately 75% of the world's coastline. The rate and nature of the mechanisms that govern the retreat of these cliffs remain poorly constrained, primarily because conventional approaches employed to monitor these proces...

Combined digital photogrammetry and time-of-flight laser scanning for monitoring cliff evolution (2005)
Journal Article
Lim, M., Petley, D., Rosser, N., Allison, R., Long, A., & Pybus, D. (2005). Combined digital photogrammetry and time-of-flight laser scanning for monitoring cliff evolution. The Photogrammetric Record, 20(110), 109-129. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1477-9730.2005.00315.x

Although cliffs form approximately 75% of the world's coastline, the understanding of the processes through which they evolve remains limited because of a lack of quantitative data on the morphological changes they undergo. In this paper the combinat... Read More about Combined digital photogrammetry and time-of-flight laser scanning for monitoring cliff evolution.
