Potential for redistribution of DwH-impacted bottom sediments to down-slope depocenters: Eastern Gulf of Mexico

Evidence of late glacial paleoseismicity from submarine landslide deposits within Lac Dasserat, northwestern Quebec, Canada
An integrated seismo- and chronostratigraphic investigation at Lac Dasserat, northwestern Quebec, identified 74 separate failures within eight event horizons. Horizons E and B, and H and G have strong or moderately-strong multi-landslide signatures, respectively, composed of 11-23 failures, while horizons F, D, C, and A have minor landslide signatures consisting of a single or pair of deposit(s). Cores collected at six sites recovered glacial Lak…
A massive sensitive clay landslide, Quyon Valley, southwestern Quebec, Canada, and evidence for a paleoearthquake triggering mechanism
A landslide debris field covering ~ 31 km 2 , the presence of large sediment blocks up to hundreds of meters long, and the exposure of deposits of a single landslide along the incised course of the Quyon River are evidence of a massive failure of sensitive Champlain Sea glaciomarine sediments along the lower Quyon Valley, southwestern Quebec, Canada. Seventeen radiocarbon ages indicate that the failure occurred between 980 and 1060 cal yr BP. Twe…
Influence of loss of gradient from postglacial uplift on Red River flood hazard, Manitoba, Canada
The north-flowing, low-gradient section of the Red River in Manitoba has lost-60%/o of its valley gradient since 8 ka cal. BP. An existing hydraulic model of the modem Red River flood zone was used to examine the change in flood extent and depth of a discharge equivalent to the 1997 Red River flood (3970 m 3 /s) for scenarios of gradients at 8, 6, 4 and 2 ka cal. BP as well as 2 ka in the future. The modelling indicates a broad, shallow flood zon…
Optical dating studies of mud-dominated alluvium and buried hearth-like features from Red River Valley, southern Manitoba, Canada
Optical dating studies of samples of late-Holocene mud-dominated alluvium, and heated alluvium in features interpreted to be hearths, collected from the banks of the Red River, southern Manitoba, Canada, were undertaken to assess the viability of these deposits as chronometers for floodplain evolution. Optical dating was done by utilizing the violet luminescence emitted during infrared excitation of the potassium feldspar in the fine-silt polymin…
Lithological and geophysical logs of shallow boreholes across the floodplain of the Red River, near St. Jean Baptiste, Manitoba
Channel changes along the lower reaches of major Mackenzie River tributaries
Alluvial rivers undergo lateral channel change through progressive lateral migration at bends or through channel avulsions. The floodplains of rivers experiencing lateral channel change contain geomorphic features indicative of past migration. Based on aerial photography spanning from the late 1940s early 1950s to the 1970s 1980s, insignificant lateral channel change occurred along the lowest reaches of the Root, Willowlake, Blackwater, Great Bea…
Canadian Landform Examples: Red River, Red River Valley, Manitoba
The flat topography of the Red River Valley reflects the morphology of underlying bedrock covered with late Quaternary glacial and glaciolacustrine sediments. The meandering Red River occupies a shallow stream‐cut valley that became incised into the Red River Valley plain following the final recession of glacial Lake Agassiz. Extreme flows carried by the river overtop the sides of the stream‐cut valley and spread laterally up to several tens of k…
