#NorthwestTerritories #canada The researchers found that instead of a top-down melting process by which the permafrost thawed to a muddy slurry from above, the slides were instead caused by a combination of fire-related thaw & warming temperatures, leading to cracks near the top of the slopes. These cracks allowed the thaw to penetrate deeper, eventually melting the bottom of the permafrost layer https://www.livescience.com/planet-earth/climate-change/a-potential-glimpse-into-the-future-climate-change-has-triggered-permafrost-landslides-with-house-size-blocks-of-ice-in-canada #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

Here's why Parks Canada is creating a 3D model of 1853 shipwreck in the N.W.T. It’s the most thorough assessment of the site since its discovery in 2010 and aims to answer questions about Arctic exploration, the lives of crew members on the ship, and the interaction of the Inuvialuit community with the ship.
