Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5577.
The objective of this project is to better understand the physical, chemical, and biological controls of the Rapid Creek Formation by collecting and analyzing samples (through fieldwork) and developing a new sequence stratigraphic framework for the purpose of uncovering its potential and enabling the identification of...

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...

The active layer, overlying the permafrost layer, is the surface earth material that thaws and re-freezes each year. Active layer thickness and character can influence hunting, fishing, forestry, gardening, transportation and construction. Changes in the active layer can contribute to landslides which may damage structures, hamper transportation, affect water quality, and influence surface and sub...

This long-term, ongoing study is aimed at understanding the factors controlling water levels and the availability of nutrients in a variety of lakes in the Mackenzie Delta. This work will allow us to better understand the natural Mackenzie Delta ecosystem, and to make better predictions of the effect of environmental change on the Delta. Cores of sediment will be collected from lake bottoms to d...
