Particle Dynamics on the Mackenzie shelf (CASES sub-project)
Principal Investigator: Walker, Tony R
Licensed Year(s): 2005 2004
Summary: The Beaufort Sea shelf is very shallow and the Mackenzie River, which sends freshwater, nutrients, and particles onto the shelf, may have a large influence on its productivity. The researchers would like to study the effects of the river in transporting particles to the shelf by measuring the types of particles, how fast they sink, and how easily they are stirred from the bottom. They would also ...


Beaufort Sea Coastal Zone Processes
Principal Investigator: Solomon, Steven M
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1999 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992
Summary: As part of the Northern Oil and Gas Program (NOGAP), the Geological Survey of Canada will investigate shallow sediment types, sediment content in ice and under-ice water currents in the Canadian Beaufort Sea. This will be done by sampling and surveying using hand-held equipment and current meters (placed under the ice). This study will help to determine the role of ice in transporting sediments ...


Coastal and Nearshore Sediment Dynamics Atkinson Point Area, Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, NWT
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....


Sedimentation in the Mackenzie Delta and Beaufort Sea Coast
Principal Investigator: Hill, Philip R.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992
Summary: The purpose of this project is to understand how the Mackenzie Delta and adjacent coastal regions have developed over the last 18,000 years, since the last glaciation affected the region. The project will includes investigating the sub-surface development of the delta and studying the processes by which sediment supplied by the river is transported to the continental shelf and coastal waters....
