Investigation of Ground Ice Development in Sediments of the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Burn, Chris R
Licensed Year(s): 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The Research will continue to examine the hydrology of frost heave in the ideal environment of a lake-bottom. In addition some experimental trials of frost heave in equipment of various sizes will be conducted in winter time. Summer activities are planned in the outer Delta to examine the distribution of ice in the upper layers of permafrost and to investigate permafrost conditions beneath shallow...


Coastal Sedimentary Processes and Geotechnical Conditions, North Head Area, Richards Island, Canadian Beaufort Sea
Principal Investigator: Solomon, Steven M
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: The Researcher and his team will use a hand-operated auger to take sediment cores and temperature measurements. Cores will penetrate the seabed beneath the ice to a depth of 2-3 metres. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) will be used to investigate ground ice distribution and a current meter will be used to measure sub-ice currents along the edge of the bottom-fast ice....
