Long term river flow and climate conditions reconstructed from lake sediments
Principal Investigator: Lamoureux, Scott F
Licensed Year(s): 2012
Summary: The research team seeks to obtain sediment cores from two lakes in order to reconstruct past river flow in the region. This work, which builds on similar efforts at "Shellabear" lake, NWT, and work at Cape Bounty (Nunavut), will focus on long term river flow characteristics and the climate factors that control them. The fieldwork involves augering a hole in the lake ice and lowering a tube int...


Evolution of coastal lakes in the High Arctic
Principal Investigator: Lamoureux, Scott F
Licensed Year(s): 2010 2009
Summary: The goal is to distinguish the chemical and physical processes acting on different coastal lakes in order to understand how the systems have developed through time. Water from lakes at both field sites will be sampled for laboratory analysis. This is the fourth year of sampling at Shellabear Lake, and we are testing to see if the lake at Chevalier Bay is also hypersaline. We will take a short...


Climate change reconstructed from lake sediments
Principal Investigator: Lamoureux, Scott F
Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: The goal of this project is to collect sediment cores and water samples from a lake, to be analysed as an indication of past snow melt and stream flow in the area. Two personnel will camp at the site for 5 days in late May. In late June, early July and/or late August they will return by helicopter from a neighboring camp in Nunavut for two or three visits, 3-4 hours each visit. A skidoo will be...
