Timing and genesis of the Eagle meltwater channel in northern Yukon: Implications for the northwestern Laurentide margin
Principal Investigator: Kennedy, Kristen
Licensed Year(s): 2008
Summary: The objective of this study is to observe and document sediments exposed along the upper Rat River, and collect samples of sediments for potential radiocarbon dating. Researchers will fly into area via helicopter from Old Crow. Where possible (large river bars or wide banks), helicopter will land adjacent to river escarpments for up to 2 hours. Researchers will climb up banks to observe sedimen...

Massive Ice Study in Granular Deposits
Principal Investigator: Pollard, Wayne H
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005 2004 2003
Summary: This study is an investigation of massive ice in granular deposits in the Mackenzie Delta area and northeastern North Slave region. The presence of massive ice in aggregate deposits results in resource management problems, particularly for the oil indus...

Investigation of ground ice development in sediments of the Mackenzie Delta area
Principal Investigator: Burn, Chris R
Licensed Year(s): 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: This on-going research will continue to examine the nature of frost heaving, permafrost and water flow in the Mackenzie Delta and associated lakes. Some experimentation on frost heaving will be conducted at specific sites during the winter months. In the summer, the distribution of ice in the upper layers of the permafrost on land as well as the nature of permafrost beneath shallow lakes will be...
