Summary:
This year, the research purpose is to investigate potential geological localities for work next year, so direct involvement with local communities and guides will be minimal. The researcher intends to identify and talk with people who have outfitting and guide businesses, and those who have knowledge of potential research areas for next summer’s research.

19961990 Summary:
The objectives of the research are 1) to collect remains of Silurian and Devonian fishes, and 2) to collect remains of Silurian trilobites. Activities are limited to travel, residence at camp locations and collection of fossils. Helicopters will be used to access camp sites. We plan to land at Avalanche Lake on July 15, spending 6 days collecting fossils at Avalanche Lake, followed by one day of t...

Two people will be transported to the field sites via helicopter from Norman Wells. All ground work is done on foot. Data collection involves photography of rock outcrops, measurement of stratigraphic sections using a tape measure, description of outcrops, and selective sampling of about 100 fist-sized rock samples using a geological hammer....

Summary:
The researchers will take and analyse duplicate peat cores collected at each of their sites. A modified Macaulay peat corer (inside diameter 5 cm) for the non frozen peat and a small diameter permafrost probe for the perennially frozen peat will be used. Analysis of the peat cores for macrofossils stratigraphy, vegitation stratigraphy and peat chemistry will be completed....
