Climate change and postglacial paleoenvironmental history of peatlands in the Mackenzie Delta area
Principal Investigator:
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: This research is part of an international project that is aimed at documenting the history of changes in the treeline during the Holocene era. While much is known about the environment and climate of this era, little is known about the development of peatlands during this time. I will collect data on peat layering, pollen and fossils in order to determine how the peatlands developed during this ...

Peat Plateau Collapse and Climate Change
Principal Investigator:
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: The research will examine permafrost-containing peat plateaus that have burned during severe fires to determine the features of subsidence (decrease) and the rate of subsidence....
