![]() These measurements showed that creep is strongly focused into the winter months and that it correlates well with groundwater levels. We have acquired three years of such data from wire creep meters, borehole piezometers and rainfall monitoring. Annual measurements using conventional surveying techniques have shown that creep is exacerbated by periods of heavy rainfall, but to establish a detailed correlation between creep and groundwater levels requires spatially and temporally higher resolution monitoring. The creeping Mam Tor landslide (North Derbyshire, UK) is sliding slowly downhill at up to 0.5 m per year. ![]() Green, Sam Rutter, Ernest Holloway, Robert The effects of groundwater level and vegetation on creep of the Mam Tor landslip The effects of groundwater level and vegetation on creep of the Mam Tor landslip
