Recipe for disaster for sure. Add to that glacial debutressing from thinning glaciers (think Tracy Arm August 2025).

I actually have a proposal to build this in 2 by 1 m for large scale outdoor demos.
I actually think it could get hazardous at that size when the toe thrusts forward
once the paper is acceptet i will advertise some more on this:)

Just submitted the paper on this today. You can find sneak peaks on the models here www.thingiverse.com/GEUSVR/designs
+ other geology 3D-models
Yup - exactly what happened in the Karrat 2017 landslide: (presumable) permafrost degradation weakening the slope -> giant wave->inundating local village -> four people -> died village (still) evacuated
And it is not the only case ve already hae.
Now add ongoing climate change
Tsunamigenic rockslide on your desktop?
This is a scaled and simplified model of the 2017 Karrat landslide.
I think it captures the dynamics of the tsunami generation quite well, though it is of course, very simplified.
There are several (yellow) but i guess the "main one" (in terms of consequence) is the red one?

🚨 First scientific output of 2026 🚨
“An Inventory of Objectively Awesome Landslide Songs” 🎶⛰️
Yes, it’s a real playlist. Landslide themed + a couple of mudslides/avalanches, of course.
Any obvious omissions? (must satisfy: objectively awesome ∩ landslide-themed)?

Why is this not on the list of critical raw materials? The whole industry is dependent on just one mine!

At #NWGM2026 conference, @ksvenenvig.bsky.social showed me a 3D-printed map of a #landslide in flattish Denmark and if this isn’t a great example of the power of lighting angles on DEMs, I don’t know what is. 🧪⚒️

Well actually 🤓
Its active landslides (the presentation). movement is triggered by coastal erosion and elevated water table but it is glaciotectinic structural inheritance that decides where they occur and why they are so big.
But you are on the nose with the 3d printed (giant rellict) landslide
and i was todays yers old when i found out (most) n-americans eat with the knife and fork opposite!
🍴=correct.
For god's sake @watershedlab.bsky.social even the emojis agree with me on this 🍽️
💡Hvilke erfaringer og indsigter tog deltagerne med hjem fra forskningslederkurset?
Sammen med 18 andre forskere deltog lektor Anja Marie Bornø Jensen og seniorforsker @ksvenenvig.bsky.social i ’Carlsberg Foundation Research Leadership Course’. Næste forløb udbyder vi i 2027 #dkforsk
Congratulations Paula! Well deserved.

Look what arrived: Just bought two original hand-painted prints from Møns and Stevns Cliffs, Denmark, from 1851. These are photorealistic, made in collaboration by some of the best artists and scientists of the era.

OK, couldn't help browsing around and found these two quite different paleo(?) slides to the S. one has a road on top. 61°36'27.69"N 124°17'50.98"W
22.10.2025 07:12 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Wow! Morpho looks similar to some of the deglacial landslides in Denmark, though the relief is much lower
