Climate driven permafrost degradation and its impact on slope failures
Principal Investigator: Beddoe, Ryley
Licensed Year(s): 2016 2015
Summary: The objective of this research is to better understand the impact of climate driven permafrost degradation on slope instabilities and landslides in the region. This research will involve detailed investigation of both landslides that have occurred and slopes that are assessed for being at a high risk of failure. Soil samples will be taken by digging test pits within the active layer with hand ...

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...
