Variability and Change in the Canadian Cryosphere - Tundra Information Transferability Study
Principal Investigator: Walker, Anne E
Licensed Year(s): 2008
Summary: Environment Canada plans to measure snow depth, snow density and snow water equivalent (water storage in the snowpack), as well as lake ice thickness and structure for comparison with microwave radiometer measurements. Researchers have started to use microwave data from satellites for assessing snow water equivalent (SWE). Field tests to investigate the use of microwave sensors indicate that SW...

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...
