Study of natural and man-induced ground deformation in Mackenzie Delta region
Withdrawal of natural gas is being planned in the area of lower Mackenzie River Delta in northern Canada. The subsidence caused by the gas withdrawal is predicted to reach about 0.5 m within the next 25-30 years. Due to the low laying land, the ground subsidence may result in hydrological changes an...
