Snow accumulation/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 primary objective of this project is to improve understanding of the changes in water and energy in northern regions, and to develop improved computer models of these processes. The Trail Valley Creek, Hans Creek, and Zed Creek sites will be accessed...


Using Drilling Mud Sumps to Determine how well Permafrost Contains Contaminants
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1998 1997
Summary: Field work this year will be devoted to 1) determining the maximum extent of potassium chloride migration from sumps examined in 1997, 2) examine the Mallik L-38 sump constructed in 1972 as one of the oldest sumps in the Delta, 3) examine the sumps in Parsons Lake area where topographic relief has added the potential for salt migration due to groundwater flow. Sumps along Kumak Channel, near the m...


Permafrost Studies: Western Arctic Coast
Principal Investigator: Mackay, Ross J.
Licensed Year(s): 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1989
Summary: Transportation to and from the field sites will be by helicopter, either from Tuktoyaktuk or Inuvik, to and from Garry Island and Illisarvik (West Point, Richards Island). Most of the equipment used in the field is for measurement purposes , such as surveying equipment for precise height, distance, and tilt determinations of bench marks already installed across ice wedges and elsewhere, temperatu...


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: The researcher will continue to collect samples of ground ice and measure temperatures in lakes and ponds. This information is used to help understand how the ground heaves as it freezes in winter, and to determine the extent of soil settlement during thaw in summer. The information about lakes is used to help understand the relations between water depths and temperatures beneath the lake....


Geomorphological Research on Valley Formation and Hydrology in Arctic and Subarctic Environments
Principal Investigator: Schunke, Ekkehard
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1994 1992 1990
Summary: Dr. Schunke and his assistant will collect measurements and observations of surface forms and surface processes, soils, permafrost and hydrology...
