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...

Using Drilling Mud Sumps to Determine how well Permafrost Contains Contaminants
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1998 1997
Summary: Field work this year will be devoted to 1) determining the maximum extent of potassium chloride migration from sumps examined in 1997, 2) examine the Mallik L-38 sump constructed in 1972 as one of the oldest sumps in the Delta, 3) examine the sumps in Parsons Lake area where topographic relief has added the potential for salt migration due to groundwater flow. Sumps along Kumak Channel, near the m...

Permafrost Adjustment to Coastal and Deltaic Processes, Beaufort Sea and Mackenzie Delta, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researcher will follow detailed studies by the GSC on permafrost distribution along retreating coasts at the north end of Richards Island, and adjacent areas of sediment accumulation to find out how quickly permafrost was re-established. This study will extend further westward to determine the adjustment of permafrost to the rapid sedimentation occurring there....

The influence of sedimentation on permafrost distribution, Richards Island, NWT.
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: To place temperature probes using a water jet to measure temperatures beneath a 2 km long spit at the north end of Richards Island to determine if the accumulation of these sediments has influenced the distribution of permafrost....

The distribution of permafrost in the tidal zone of an emerging Arctic Coast.
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1987
Summary: To establish the distribution of permafrost in the tidal zone of an emerging Arctic Coast. To install 2 thermistor cables to a depth of 10-15 m. on the beach one km. west of the settlement of Cambridge Bay, Victoria Island....

Licence #5037
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1985
Summary: To re-occupy sites established on Melville Island for the measurement of frost heaving of bedrock. These sites consist of arrays of survey markers which are periodically resurveyed using a theodolite and stadia rod....
