Permafrost degradation has been hypothesized and demonstrated to influence rock-wall stability. Both thaw and warming of permafrost (entering the range of-1.5 to 0 °C) as well as the build-up of hydrostatic pressure following thaw are possible mechanisms that link warming to the reduction in strengt...
