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...


Permafrost Adjustment to Coastal and Deltaic Processes: Beaufort Sea and Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The research will involve permafrost adjustment studies on the outer Delta as well as preliminary work on landslide mechanisms along the Mackenzie River between Norman Wells and the head of the Mackenzie Delta. The purpose of the work is to understand the importance of sedimentary processes in controlling the growth and disappearance of permafrost along the coast of the Beaufort Sea....


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....
