Relative timing of sediment failures within slide-valley complexes in the Kugmallit Fan area of the central Beaufort Slope, offshore Northwest Territories / G.D.M. Cameron ... [et al.].: M41-11/74-2017E-PDF
“Hydrocarbon related activities on the Beaufort Slope raises concerns about geological hazards in the area. Two geologically recent, large, multiple-event sediment failure complexes have been identified. Relative timing of as many as five failure events is recognized. Age dating constraints suggests that these failures may be young in age. Proximity to an earthquake cluster suggests a trigger mechanism for episodic and widespread failure"--Provided by publisher.
