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...

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...

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...
