Summary:
The objective of this research is to better understand the impact of climate driven permafrost degradation on slope instabilities and landslides in the region.
This research will involve detailed investigation of both landslides that have occurred and slopes that are assessed for being at a high risk of failure. Soil samples will be taken by digging test pits within the active layer with hand ...
