This report describes result of monitoring of retrogressive thaw slumps in the Noatak National Preserve and Gates of the Arctic National Park. High-resolution, oblique aerial photographs and ground survey were used to create digital 3D models of slumps in 2010 and 2011, which allowed quantitative analysis of change.
