Secular Change in the Glacier Cover Contributing Flow to a World Heritage River - Ragged Ranges, South Nahanni River
Principal Investigator: Demuth, Michael N
Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: The objectives of this research are to document the glaciers in the Ragged Range, how they have changed in the past and what their role is presently in providing meltwater for the upper reaches of the South Nahanni River and the Flat River. Glaciers nourish streams and groundwater when other sources are absent or in decline (e.g., snowmelt, precipitation). They are most important late in the...

Glaciological Investigations in the Ragged Range
Principal Investigator: McCarthy, Daniel P
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005
Summary: The objectives of this study are to: 1) inventory the size and morphometry of glaciers in the Ragged Range; 2) find and document geological and botanical evidence of former glacier activity; 3) develop a chronology for Holocene glacier activity in the Ragged Range; and, 4) develop one or more growth curves for lichens growing on carbonate and/or silicate rocks. Also, the field reconnaissance and b...
