Southern Mackenzie Surficial Mapping
Principal Investigator: Paulen, Roger C.
Licensed Year(s): 2019 2018 2017
Summary: Activities in the study are focused on making a map of the surface sediments. The map will help to understand surface material distribution and thickness, how these materials were deposited by glaciers, and where the bedrock outcrops. Soil samples will be collected across the study area. The mineralogical and geochemical analyses of these samples will help to understand where the materials were de...


Glacial lakes McConnell and Mackenzie reconstructed from Pleistocene deltas of the Mackenzie River tributaries
Principal Investigator: Froese, Duane G
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016
Summary: The objective of this project is to investigate the architecture of Pleistocene deltas on the Mackenzie River tributaries, search evidence of high-magnitude discharge events, and collect samples for absolute dating. The research team will investigate the stratigraphic description of sedimentary sections in the river banks cutting through the Pleistocene deltas. Collection of samples are for rad...


Holocene Glacier Fluctuations in Nahanni National Park Reserve, Northwest Territories, Canada
Principal Investigator: Menounos, Brian p
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016
Summary: The objective of the study is to date the formation of terminal moraines fronting Brintnell Glacier, and analyze the glacigenic signature within the sediments of Glacier Lake in order to develop a robust chronology of glacier change on the Brintnell-Bologna Icefield. This decade to century scale chronology will be compared to regional-to-hemispheric climate proxies to evaluate the climate sensitiv...


Quaternary Geology, South Shore of Great Slave Lake
Principal Investigator: Lemmen, Donald
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990
Summary: The Researchers will collect small samples of surficial materials for sedimentological, geochemical and paleoecological analysis. They will map, describe and explain the unconsolidated deposits, landforms, permafrost and organic cover and study patterns of glacial dispersal and drift geochemistry....
