Permafrost investigations in western arctic Canada
Principal Investigator: Burn, Chris R
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998
Summary: Changes in the ground due to uplift, associated with the growth of a pingo, and sideways movements due to the growth of ice wedges, will be measured. Air, ground, and lake water temperatures will be measured, in order to find out how the ground is responding to climatic variation. The reseach team will also return to Paulatuk, to continue studies Dr. Mackay began there 50 years ago. Travel to s...

Stability of permafrost slopes in a warming climate
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1999
Summary: The goal of this research is to examine landslides on the slopes along the Mackenzie Valley, so that researchers can better understand their causes and the effect climate change will have on the landscape. Field work will be carried out between Wrigley and Inuvik along the Mackenzie River, with some access along the Dempster Highway. Tree increment cores will be used to determine tree age and dat...

Principal Investigator: Dallimore, S.R.
Licensed Year(s): 1990 1989
Summary: Mr. Dallimore and his team intend to re-visit instrumented test-sites, complete mapping of surficial materials and to collect limited soil samples for analyses....
