Figure 14: Areas prone to quick clay landslides……………………………………………………p
An important phenomena, that could be affected in the future due to rising sea level, are landslide. Large part of Bakklandet is built on the base of quick clay, which makes the ground conditions somewhat unstable, especially towards increasing levels of water. Figure 14 shows an overview of areas prone to quick clay landslides. As is evident from the map, a lot of the building structures lie within areas that are either categorized as having medium or high hazard degree when it comes to quick clay landslides. A large part of this area is also within the plots that are expected to be affected by the sea level rise in the future.
