20172016 Summary:
The objective of this project is to complete on ice snow depth, ice thickness and composition survey along with collection under ice core water quality and biological information.
Sample locations from previous years are located using a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS). On ice snow depth is measured using a tape measure. An ice auger is used to penetrate the ice cover and evaluate if w...

200720062005 Summary:
The objective of this study is to develop a hydro-ecological model for small Arctic lakes to assess the vulnerability of their ecosystems to disturbances, such as climate change or water withdrawal.
To quantify geochemical loadings to lakes, a model is being developed by monitoring lakes and their contributing catchment (surface water flow). A climate station will be set up at 2 - 6 sites to mo...

Summary:
The objective of this research is to identify the locations of deep scour holes in the river bed. Unusual bathymetric features such as these deep holes (up to 30 m deep and 5-6 times the average channel depth) are of great practical concern in designing...
