Stability of permafrost slopes in a warming climate
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1999
Summary: The goal of this research is to examine landslides on the slopes along the Mackenzie Valley, so that researchers can better understand their causes and the effect climate change will have on the landscape. Field work will be carried out between Wrigley and Inuvik along the Mackenzie River, with some access along the Dempster Highway. Tree increment cores will be used to determine tree age and dat...


Implications of climate change for slope stability in the Mackenzie Valley
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: In this ongoing study, the frequency and characteristics of landslides occurring in the Mackenzie Valley area are examined. I am trying to determine the roles that forest fires, climate changes and water flow in rivers play in the location and number of landslides. The field work will involve taking measurements on past landslides that include measuring permafrost features and taking core samples...
