Regional Terrain Hazards Mapping
Principal Investigator: Couture, Réjean
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005
Summary: The goal of this project is to compile updated baseline information/knowledge on the types, regional distribution, and controls (e.g. forests fires, climate change) of landslides. The main objectives of the field reconnaissance at landslide sites are six-fold: 1) to validate previous data collected through air photo interpretation and remote sensing techniques; 2) to carry out detailed mapping at ...

Spatial variability of active-layer thickness and surface characteristics
Principal Investigator: Nguyen, Thai-Nguyen
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005
Summary: The objective of this research is to determine the spatial correlation between surface properties and active-layer thickness. Six sites have been established across the treeline, between Inuvik and Swimming Point. At each site, shallow temperature cables are installed in the active-layer and near-surface permafrost and air temperatures are monitored by data logger. During this project, the res...

Near-surface ground ice in sediments of the Mackenzie Delta region, NWT
Principal Investigator: Kokelj, Steven V
Licensed Year(s): 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 2000 1999
Summary: This project investigates the the distribution and amount of near-surface ice in sediments of the Mackenzie delta area near Inuvik. Sites near Inuvik will be accessed via road and sampled using a hand held power auger. Soil cores will be removed and taken to the Inuvik Research Center for subsequent examination. The thickness of permafrost will be measured by near-surface water jet drilling which ...
