Environmental Studies Across Treeline
Principal Investigator: Kokelj, Steven V
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005
Summary: This study will include: 1) monitoring permafrost conditions in the Mackenzie Delta region; 2) examining freeze-back of the active layer and associated strength properties of freezing soil; 3) examining the influence of shrub removal on frozen ground and snow conditions at abandoned drilling-mud sumps; 4) investigating effectiveness of different soil sampling protocols on delineating contaminants ...


Environmental conditions at abandoned drilling mud-sumps in the Kendall Island Bird Sanctuary, Mackenzie Delta Region
Principal Investigator: Kokelj, Steven V
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005
Summary: Since the 1970's, the oil and gas industry has drilled at least 19 exploratory wells in the Kendall Island Bird Sanctuary (KIBS), but there is a shortage of field data describing environmental conditions at the well-sites and drilling-mud sumps. In Marc...


Near-surface ground ice in sediments of the Mackenzie Delta region, NWT
Principal Investigator: Kokelj, Steven V
Licensed Year(s): 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 2000 1999
Summary: This project investigates the the distribution and amount of near-surface ice in sediments of the Mackenzie delta area near Inuvik. Sites near Inuvik will be accessed via road and sampled using a hand held power auger. Soil cores will be removed and taken to the Inuvik Research Center for subsequent examination. The thickness of permafrost will be measured by near-surface water jet drilling which ...
