Land Management Problems in Hydrocarbon Development Areas with Ice-Rich Permafrost: Detection and Assessment
Principal Investigator: Pollard, Wayne H
Licensed Year(s): 2010 2009
Summary: This licence is being issued for the scientific research application no. 946. The objective of this research is to better understand the distribution of underground ice in hydrocarbon development areas. By identifying how much ice there is, the researcher wants to study how oil/gas activities and climate change could affect the land. Underground ice is one of the most unpredictable and problema...

Massive Ice Study in Granular Deposits
Principal Investigator: Pollard, Wayne H
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005 2004 2003
Summary: Sand, gravel and crushed stone are valuable geological resources, collectively known as aggregates. They are essential bed, foundation and building materials. The presence of massive ice in aggregate deposits results in a series of resource management problems, particularly for the oil industry and its contractors who rely on local granular deposits as building material. From an environmental pers...

The Nature and Origin of Ground Ice in the High Arctic and Icing as a Hydrologic Component of Northern Drainage Basins
Principal Investigator: Pollard, Wayne H
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: The researchers will gain a better understanding of permafrost conditions of the study area and the environmental conditions under which permafrost formed and evolved. They will also investigate icings and icing processes, since icings are a hydrologic phenomenon and their occurance has implications for recharge and runoff of drainage systems and water resource management....

Ground Ice in the Mackenzie Delta and Yukon Coastal Plain Area
Principal Investigator: Pollard, Wayne H
Licensed Year(s): 1987
Summary: To complete a three year study concerned with the detailed investigation of ground ice characteristics by mapping ground ice distribution and stratigraphic relations along with collection of sediment and ice samples for grain, size, moisture content, isotope and crystallographic analysis. Field investigation will utilize existing ground ice slumps and permafrost exposures along coastal bluffs in ...
