  • Preliminary Calibration of a Numerical Runout Model for Debris Flows in Southwestern British Columbia
    7th International Conference on Debris-Flow Hazards Mitigation Preliminary calibration of a numerical runout model for debris flows in Southwestern British Columbia Sophia Zubryckya,*, Andrew Mitchella, Jordan Aaronb, Scott McDougalla a Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences – University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada bDepartment of Engineering Geology – ETH Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland Abstract Debris-flow hazard and risk assessments require reliable estimates of inundation area, velocity and flow depth to evaluate spatial impact and impact intensity. Semi-empirical numerical runout models that simulate bulk flow behavior with simple rheological models are useful in forecasting these parameters, however, they require calibration by back-analyzing past events. This paper presents the back-analysis of six debris flows in southwestern British Columbia using a novel automated calibration approach that systematically optimizes the Dan3D runout model to fit field observations. The calibration method yielded good simulations of runout length, but under-predicted flow depths in some cases, and over-predicted velocities in all cases. The best-fit Voellmy rheology parameters for the studied cases ranged from 46 to 531 m/s2 for the turbulence coefficient and 0.08 to 0.18 for the friction coefficient. There is a potential inverse correlation between friction coefficient and event volume. Calibrated parameters were compared to morphometric parameters for the study sites, which may be useful for guiding parameter selection once a larger dataset is calibrated. Ongoing work is focused on refining the calibration technique, including standardization of input parameters more relevant to debris flows. The long-term goal is to apply the technique to a larger dataset of debris-flow cases and provide practitioners with better guidance on the selection of model input parameters for forecasting purposes.

  • Snow Survey and Water Supply Bulletin – January 1St, 2021
    Snow Survey and Water Supply Bulletin – January 1st, 2021 The January 1st snow survey is now complete. Data from 58 manual snow courses and 86 automated snow weather stations around the province (collected by the Ministry of Environment Snow Survey Program, BC Hydro and partners), and climate data from Environment and Climate Change Canada and the provincial Climate Related Monitoring Program have been used to form the basis of the following report1. Weather October began with relatively warm and dry conditions, but a major cold spell dominated the province in mid-October. Temperatures primarily ranged from -1.5 to +1.0˚C compared to normal. The cold spell also produced early season low elevation snowfall for the Interior. Following the snowfall, heavy rain from an atmospheric river affected the Central Coast and spilled into the Cariboo, resulting in prolonged flood conditions. Overall, most of the Interior received above normal precipitation for the month, whereas coastal regions were closer to normal. In November, temperatures were steady at near normal to slightly above normal and primarily ranged from -0.5 to +1.5˚C through the province. The warmest temperatures relative to normal occurred in the Interior, while the coldest occurred in the Northwest. Precipitation was mostly below normal to near normal (35-105%) with the Northeast / Peace as the driest areas. A few locations, e.g. Prince Rupert and Williams Lake, were above 130% due to a strong storm event early in the month. Temperatures in December were relatively warm across the province, ranging from +1.0 to +5.0˚C above normal.

  • Food Web E.2. Electronic Appendix
    E.2. Electronic Appendix - Food Web Elements of the Fraser River Basin Upper River (above rkm 210) Food webs: Microbenthic algae (periphyton), detritus from riparian vegetation and littoral insects (especially midges) are key components supporting fish production in the mainstem upper Fraser and larger tributaries. Collector-gatherers (invertebrates feeding on fine particulate organic material) are the most abundant functional feeding group, making up to 85% of the invertebrate species on the latter two rivers. Smaller tributaries are dominated by collector, shredder and grazer insect feeding modes (Reece and Richardson 2000). There is a general increasing trend in insect abundance from the headwaters of the main river to the lower river (Reynoldson et al. 2005). Juvenile stream-type Chinook rear along the shorelines of the upper river and tributaries and some overwinter under ice as the river margins usually freeze over here. Juvenile Chinook diets in the main stem and tributaries include larval plecopterans, empheropterans, chironomids and terrestrial insects (Homoptera, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera and Arachnida; Russell et al. 1983, Rogers et al. 1988, Levings and Lauzier 1991). Rainbow trout and northern pikeminnow consume mainly sculpins in the Nechako River as well as a variety of insects (Brown et al. 1992). Stressors: Water quality and habitat conditions have changed food webs in specific locations in the upper river. However, compared to other rivers in North America, water quality is good (Reynoldson et al. 2005), even with five pulp mills currently operating in the megareach. The food web of the Thompson River was stimulated in the past by low concentrations of bleached Kraft pulp mill effluent released into the river (Dube and Culp 1997); it is not known if this is still happening as treatment techniques for effluent have changed.

  • Cheam Range, Lady Peak, North Face
    AAC Publications Cheam Range, Lady Peak, North Face Canada, British Columbia, North Cascades On May 7, Brette Harrington and Marc-André Leclerc climbed the north face of Lady Peak (2,178m) in the Cheam Range, near Chilliwack. This was likely the first ascent of the face, whose steepest section gains about 500m and is comprised of loose but compact volcanic rock. The two spent 13 hours on the climb, which involved thin ice and technical dry tooling on slabs, often with marginal protection (11 long pitces, 5.8 M4 80°). They topped out at sundown and scrambled to the summit before descending easy slopes to the west. In January 2016, the same pair made the probable first ski descent of the northeast couloir on Lady Peak. – Dougald MacDonald, with information from Marc-André Leclerc The following first-person account of this ascent, by Marc-André Leclerc, unfortunately was received too late for publication in the print edition of AAJ 2018: On May 7, Brette Harrington and I climbed a line, right of center, on the imposing north face of Lady Peak in the Cheam Range, the same range of mountains where I essentially began my true mountaineering apprenticeship, with an ascent of Welch Peak, at 11 years old. The area is well known for very loose rock, and the more technical routes are often done in winter or spring as frozen mixed routes. The north face of Lady Peak is the steepest in the range and could be considered the last major face in the range to be climbed, as the unclimbed north face of the Still, while appealing, is quite small in comparison.
