Abstract/Description or Keywords |
The objective of this project was to complete detailed terrain stability mapping, including erosion potential, for five areas in the Mud Creek area (Figure 1, areas A to E). The information will be used by the Ministry :of Forests, Lillooet Forest District, for the purpose of forest development planning. This report augments the information that is shown on the maps. It provides a general overview of the physiography of the study area (Section 2), descriptions of terrain mapping methodology and mapping reliability (Section 3), additional information about surficial materials and processes (Sections 4 and 5), and criteria applied to slope stability and erosion potential interpretations (Section 6). Implications and recommendations for forestry planning and management that arise out of this terrain analysis are discussed in section 7. landslide, erosion, terrain stability, geomorphology |
