The Downie Slide case history demonstrates the importance of detailed site investigation and long-term monitoring, as well as the need for reinterpretation of the local geologic, structural, and groundwater conditions, and reassessment of slope stability as new information becomes available....

Evaluation of potential meteorological triggers of large landslides in sensitive glaciomarine clay, eastern Canada
Download2012-01-01
Hutchinson, D. J. , Gauthier, D.
Heavy rains spread over some interval preceding large landslides in sensitive glaciomarine clay in eastern Canada are often noted as a triggering or causative factor in case studies or research reports for individual landslides, although the quantity or duration of the triggering rain event has...

Landslides in weakly cemented glaciolacustrine sediments, Morkill River valley, British Columbia
Download2001
Abstract: Slopes in weakly cemented glaciolacustrine sediments in the Morkill River valley in the Canadian Rocky Mountains stand at up to 70 degrees. Based on field and laboratory observations it appears that a contributing factor to instability is the softening of the soils by frost action and...
