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....
