摘要：2017 was a year where we all experienced how fatal geological forces can be for society. On June 17, a tragic natural disaster hit Greenland. Following a huge landslide into Karrat Fjord, major waves flooded the settlements of Nuugaatsiaq and Illorsuit. Four persons were lost and many houses in Nuugaatsiaq were destroyed. Due to the continued high risk for more landslides, the inhabitants of the two settlements have not returned and the Greenlandic authorities advise against visiting the risk area.
