   The permafrost melts due to the rise in average temperature and landslides are caused, horizontal movements of liquefied soil. In the last 10 years, the average temperature has been steadily rising by a whole degree -0,9 ° C for centuries. The permafrost in the surrounding area is up to 70 meters thick, so the liquefaction of the soil is caused by the melting of the ice in the subsoil, at surface height.
