Flux of sediment-associated chemical elements in rivers draining to the Arctic Ocean
Principal Investigator: Bogen, Jim J
Licensed Year(s): 2010
Summary: The objective of this research is to estimate the modern and historical fluxes of sediment- associated chemical elements to the Arctic Ocean and their relationships to natural and man-induced changes in sediment yields and sediment sources and if possible, predict the impact of future climate changes on the fluxes. The study will include sampling of overbank sediments from floodplains and del...


Overbank sediment patterns on the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Pearce, Cheryl M.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The researcher will continue her long-term study on the physical features of the Mackenzie Delta. Hydrocarbon development, water volume and course changes, and climate change could have major effects on the water and sedimentation patterns of the delta. This study will increase knowledge of sedimentation patterns, shoreline erosion and their relationships with vegetation....


Permafrost Adjustment to Coastal and Deltaic Processes: Beaufort Sea and Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The research will involve permafrost adjustment studies on the outer Delta as well as preliminary work on landslide mechanisms along the Mackenzie River between Norman Wells and the head of the Mackenzie Delta. The purpose of the work is to understand the importance of sedimentary processes in controlling the growth and disappearance of permafrost along the coast of the Beaufort Sea....


Mackenzie Delta Permafrost/Geology Transect
Principal Investigator: Dallimore, Scott R
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1993 1992 1992 1991
Summary: A transect consisting of geotechnical boreholes and detailed geophysical studies will document the geological, geothermal and geotechnical conditions of perennially frozen sediments at three sites on Richards Island in the Mackenzie Delta....


Lupin Mine Environmental Effects Monitoring
Principal Investigator: d'Entremont, Andre
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990
Summary: Fifty (50) sediment samples will be collected from 6 stations in Inner and Outer Sun Bay, Contwoyto Lake. The samples will be analyzed to determine whether or not there have been changes in contaminant levels since the mine became operational. Fifty (50) additional samples will be taken to look at the benthic organisms which live in the sediments....
