Principal Investigator: Worsley, Peter
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: Dr. Worsley is coming from England with his research associates to continue his studies of how the rocks, landscape, and permafrost of Banks Island have changed in the last million years. He is interested in using this information to try to determine what conditions where like in England long ago....

Principal Investigator: Harry, David
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: As part of a Ph.d. program to undertake a study of the nature of permafrost and ground ice conditions. Specific field operations will consist of an examination of coastal cliff rock sections. Samples will be collected for further study and analysis....

Principal Investigator: French, Hugh
Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: (1) To undertake geomorphic studies and to study special permafrost formations; (2) inspection of oil well sites to determine rehabilitation and assess long term impacts of these developments....

Principal Investigator: Wankiewicz, Anthony
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To study permafrost near Arctic streams at sites near Inuvik and several locations in the Keewatin. This study is to provide baseline information on coupled heat-transfer processes relevant to cold gas pipeline stream crossings. The ground temperature will be monitored at stream cross sections at the different sites....

Principal Investigator: Hunter, J.A.
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To conduct geophysical measurements to determine the presence and extent of sub-seabottom permafrost at selected sites in the Mackenzie Delta area and the Beaufort Sea. The survey will consist of temperature, density, porosity and acoustic measurements of sea bed materials....
