Factors influencing the distribution and initiation of active-layer detachment slides on Ellesmere Island, Arctic Canada / Antoni G. Lewkowicz.
Title: | Factors influencing the distribution and initiation of active-layer detachment slides on Ellesmere Island, Arctic Canada / Antoni G. Lewkowicz. |
Author(s): | Lewkowicz, Antoni G. |
Date: | 1992. |
Publisher: | Chichester: John Wiley & Sons |
In: | Periglacial geomorphology. Proceedings of the 22nd Annual Binghamton Symposium in Geomorphology. (1992.), |
Abstract: | Mapped at three locations on Fosheim Peninsula. Recent slides are related to susceptibility of soils to frost action and rates of advance of thaw plane at critical depths within active layer. |
Notes: | In: Periglacial geomorphology. Proceedings of the 22nd Annual Binghamton Symposium in Geomorphology / John C. Dixon, Athol D. Abrahams, eds. |
