Mass Balance of Arctic Glaciers
Principal Investigator: Koerner, Roy M
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003
Summary: This project is part of a glacier program covering four ice caps and one glacier, one of the ice caps being in the Northwest Territories (Melville Ice Cap). The work involves measuring poles drilled into the ice to see if more ice and snow is melting than it is accumulating. These data are an excellent indicator of climate change. The indications so far are that, although the ice cap is getting sm...


Ice Core Analysis and Glacier Mass Balance
Principal Investigator: Koerner, Roy M
Licensed Year(s): 1995 1992 1991
Summary: The researchers will measure the snow mass at fixed locations on each of four ice caps. This will be compared to similar measures taken last year. Ice and snow samples will also be collected for later analysis for pollutants. Ice cores will be drilled from the Penny Penny Ice Cap at several locations....
