IPY-SCARF: International Polar Year - Study of Canadian Arctic River-delta Fluxes
Principal Investigator: Lesack, Lance
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007
Summary: The Arctic Ocean receives much higher river inflows than other ocean basins and this has major implications for sea-ice formation, for nutrient supply to the base of aquatic marine foodwebs, and for optical properties of ice-free areas and ice-pack margins via fluxes of dissolved organic matter and riverine particles. The Beaufort Shelf is strongly influenced by Mackenzie River outflows. However, ...


Extreme Flooding Events in the Mackenzie River Basin
Principal Investigator: de Rham, Laurent
Licensed Year(s): 2004
Summary: It is known that extreme flood levels within the Mackenzie River Basin are caused by ice jamming events. Analysis of open water versus ice influenced water levels at several sites within the Mackenzie River Basin will provide further quantification of th...


Environmental Assessment for Proposed Oil and Gas Development Activities in the Gwich'in Region, NWT.
Principal Investigator: Melton, Derek
Licensed Year(s): 2002 2000
Summary: Researchers will assess fish habitat (by documenting the potential of waterbodies) and to determine the presence or absense of wildlife in the vicinity of the proposed project. A search for registered archaelogical sites within the proposed area will also be undertaken. Information from these studies will form part of an environmental assessment for the proposed project. Researchers will access...


Snow Melt Runoff in High Latitude Permafrost Basins
Principal Investigator: Marsh, Philip
Licensed Year(s): 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1990
Summary: The research project will include measuring the amount of snow on the ground, changes in snow properties during spring melt, weather conditions and runoff in nearby rivers. The purpose of the project is to improve ability to predict smowmelt runoff to rivers and lakes in Northern Canada....


Licence #2623
Principal Investigator: McLeod, Curtis
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: To document fish use of shalllow side-channel areas or river margins and to estimate the effect of water level changes on fish habitat. Detailed physical data collection (water levels, velocity and sediment samples) will be undertaken, data will also be collected of fish and small invertebrate use of habitat....
