Summary: If an oil and gas pipeline is constructed that extends from the Mackenzie Delta to the south, the pipeline will likely cross the East Channel at either Lousy or Swimming Points. Both of these sites have been studied in the past, but little detailed information has been collected on the physical features of these sites. Data will be collected on the features of these sites, including a survey of ...

Summary: The research will provide basic information on the characteristics of the rivers and valleys that are major tributaries emptying into the Mackenzie River. The tributaries to be studied include the Carcajou, Mountain, Hume, Ramparts, Hare Indian, Ontaratue, Arctic Red and Peel Rivers. Little is known about the lower 5-7 km portion of these rivers. The information collected will include both aeri...

Principal Investigator: Hequette, Arnaud
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The researcher and his team will survey beach profiles using an electronic level, survey shallow lagoons and nearshore zones, collect nearshore sediment samples and deploy current meters in the nearshore zone and in a shallow lagoon....

Principal Investigator: Fyles, John G.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: On Melville and Bathurst Islands, the Researchers will locate and describe the occurrence of high-level gravels and sands, record evidence of the flow-direction of the rivers in which they originated and search for plant and insect fossils that may provide clues about the age of these deposits and about the climate and environment at that time....

Principal Investigator: French, Hugh
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researchers will conduct initial exploration of potential sites for the purpose of undertaking stratigraphic and geomorphological investigations....

Principal Investigator: Begin, Christian
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The research team will investigate a few localities to determine the best sites to study eolian deposits (sand dunes) and features related to permafrost degradation. Samples of granular and organic deposits will be taken....

Principal Investigator: Black, Thomas A.
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and his assistant will paddle a route from Coppermine up the Rae River across the watershed and down the Hornaday River. They will examine the fluvial geomorphology and evidence of continetal glaciation along this route....

Principal Investigator: French, Hugh
Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: (1) To undertake geomorphic studies and to study special permafrost formations; (2) inspection of oil well sites to determine rehabilitation and assess long term impacts of these developments....

Principal Investigator: Guyomarch, Miss Pascale
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: Geomorphological studies of a reconnaissance nature and will emphasize rock weathering, cliff retreat and permafrost conditions within 10 miles of the townsite....

Principal Investigator: French, Hugh
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: Banks Island: Geomorphological Investigations - ground ice, pingos, mass-wasting and spring runoff will be investigated at sites in the Sachs and Upper Kellett drainage systems. Holman Island: Geomorphological studies will be of a reconnaissance nature and will emphasize rock weathering, cliff retreat and permafrost conditions within 10 miles of townsite....
