Beaufort Marine Hazards / Integrated Beaufort Observatory
Principal Investigator: Melling, Humfrey
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016
Summary: The strategic objective of this expedition is continued long-term monitoring of Canadian Beaufort Sea. The specific objectives are: 1) to recover, service and re-deploy oceanographic moorings carrying instruments that measure ice thickness and ridging, storm waves, sea level, ocean current, temperature and salinity, mammal vocalization, underwater sound and plankton; and, 2) to visit oceanogra...


Decadal Variability of Marine Hazards
Principal Investigator: Melling, Humfrey
Licensed Year(s): 2010
Summary: The objectives of this research project are: - To recover, service and re-deploy sub-sea moorings instruments for year-round measurement of ice thickness and ridging, storm waves, sea level, ocean current, temperature and salinity, mammal vocalization, ambient sound and plankton. - To complete ocean and seabed surveys near naturally occurring methane vents on the floor of the Beaufort Sea, usin...


Beaufort Sea Ice Motion Programme - Mesoscale Flow Features Study
Principal Investigator: Melling, Humfrey
Licensed Year(s): 1988 1987
Summary: To deploy 11 drifting buoys to improve description of oceanic flow variations on scales of 5-50 km over the Mackenzie shelf of the southern Beaufort Sea; to investigate the relationship between such variations, seafloor topography and shelf water baroclinicity; to estimate the uncertainty which such fluctuations introduce into deterministic models of pack-ice drift...
