Hazards, Sea-Level Rise and Climate Change Impacts on Arctic Coasts
Principal Investigator: Forbes, Donald L
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001
Summary: This project is aimed at examining coastal change in the Beaufort Sea region. The primary objectives of the research are: 1) monitoring coastal stability and the processes which affect it (winds, waves, sea ice, etc.), 2) mapping coastal features, sediment properties, and ice conditions in the near-shore regions of the Mackenzie Delta and at coastal monitoring sites, 3) monitoring vertical ground...


Field measurements to constrain data for use in a numerical model which will quantify the growth, maintenance and disappearance of thaw lakes over time scales of tens to thousands of years
Principal Investigator: Plug, Lawrence
Licensed Year(s): 2004
Summary: The overall objective of this research is to construct and test predictive computer models that show the evolution of lowland permafrost landscapes. Surveys and radiocarbon dating of drained basins will be undertaken and canoe-based surveys will determin...

Summary: Imperial Oil Resources Ltd., Aboriginal Pipeline Group, ConocoPhillips Canada (North) Ltd., Shell Canada Limited, and ExxonMobil Canada Properties are continuing baseline studies begun in 2001 as part of the Mackenzie Gas Project. This study is for esta...


Coastal Project 13192
Principal Investigator: Taylor, R.B.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1990
Summary: The researcher and his team will search for new evidence pertaining to the recent history of relative sea level so that a Holocene sea level curve can be constructed for the Arctic Island shores....


Mackenzie Delta Hydrology and Ecosystem Interactions
Principal Investigator: Marsh, Philip
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The research will study changes in the water levels of a variety of lakes in the Mackenzie Delta. Investigations will include consideration of factors controlling the lake levels, introduction of floodwater from the Mackenzie River, rainfall on to the lake, smowmelt runoff into the lakes and evaporation from the lakes....


Mackenzie Valley Global Change Observatory
Principal Investigator: Egginton, Paul A.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1990
Summary: The team will install active layer monitoring stations at up to 8 sites on Richards Island. They will sample present active layer and surface permafrost for analysis of recent change as well as lake bottoms for similar reasons and a possible sea level record....


Licence #5027
Principal Investigator: Melling, Humfrey
Licensed Year(s): 1985
Summary: To install current meters and tide gauges beneath the sea surface to measure and record flow and sea-level for 12 months; pack ice motion and surface wind will be measured by drifting instruments for two months - to enable the prediction of ice motion several days in advance....
