Large Holocene landslides from Pylon Peak, southwestern British Columbia
Mount Meager massif, the northernmost volcano of the Cascade volcanic belt, has been the site of very large (>107 m3) landslides in the Holocene Epoch. We document two complex landslides at Pylon Peak, one of the peaks of the Mount Meager massif, about 7900 14C and 3900 14C years ago (about 8700 and 4400 calendar years ago). Together, the two landslides displaced 6 × 108 m3 of volcanic rock fro...
متن کاملPerformance of orbital remote sensing in the detection of landslides in southwest Coastal British Columbia
The utility of satellite imagery for landslide detection in southwest coastal British Columbia was evaluated by interpretation of orbital imagery (SPOT, IKONOS, and QUICKBIRD) and comparison with large-and medium-scale aerial photography. Satellite imagery was enhanced by simple, repeatable digital image processing techniques (contrast stretches and transformations, merging of images of differe...

متن کاملMagnitude and frequency of landslides triggered by a storm event, Loughborough Inlet, British Columbia
One hundred and one landslides were documented across 370 km2 following a rainstorm that swept the British Columbia coastline on 18 November 2001. Despite the regional nature of the storm, the landslides were spaced close together, even within the study area. Landslide clustering is attributed to high intensity storm cells too small to be recorded by the general hydrometric network. The evidenc...
متن کاملDaytime Photochemical Pollutant Transport over a Tributary Valley Lake in Southwestern British Columbia
Tethersonde, lidar, aircraft, and surface chemistry measurements from an intensive field campaign (Pacific ’93) in the Lower Fraser Valley (LFV) demonstrate the daytime advection of pollutants into a lake-filled valley adjoining a broad urbanized coastal valley. On three separate days (immediately before, during, and after a pollutant episode), elevated concentrations of ozone (O3) in the narro...
