Summary:
Research will be conducted in a fen-bog complex approximately 5 km west of Fort Simpson. Gas samples will be obtained using portable chambers and later analyzed using gas chromotography. Cores will be collected using a peat corer and a modified ice auger. Peat temperatures, water levels, plant growth rates and water chemistry will also be measured. Geophysical mapping using ground penetrating ...
