Résumé

Anders Rapp, Professor Emeritus of Physical Geography at the University of Lund, Sweden was best known for his work on rockslides, avalanches, periglacial debris accumulations, mass wasting features, and especially rock glaciers. Anders Rapp was an outstanding geomorphologist and teacher, with vast field experience in many parts of the world including Scandinavia, Yukon and Africa. He will be sorely missed in Swedish and international geographical circles.
