The active layer, overlying the permafrost layer, is the surface earth material that thaws and re-freezes each year. Active layer thickness and character can influence hunting, fishing, forestry, gardening, transportation and construction. Changes in the active layer can contribute to landslides which may damage structures, hamper transportation, affect water quality, and influence surface and sub...

1995 Summary:
Research will be conducted in a peatland complex approximately 12 km west of Fort Simpson (4 km west of the Wrigley Road). The major component of the field work will include the collection of peat cores in both frozen and unfrozen terrain to about 1 m depth. A total of approximately 100 cores will be collected. Core holes will be approximately 15 cm wide, and will be filled to minimize terrain ...
