Postglacial Paleoclimatology of the central and western Arctic Islands
Principal Investigator: Gajewski, Konrad
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2004 2001 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The goal of this study is to collect lake sediment cores from shallow lakes to quantify the impact of past climate change on the vegetation and lakes of the area. Sediment cores from the bottom of 2 lakes in the region will be collected. A 10 day camp of 3 people will be set up at 71°43'12"N, 122°02'31"W. Transportation will be by Twin Otter to the camp, and by walking to the lakes. No gas powe...


Past Climate of Ancient Forests on Banks Island
Principal Investigator: Johnson, Arthur
Licensed Year(s): 2005 2003
Summary: Fossil wood in coal deposits at two sites on Banks Island will be collected and used to estimate the climate regime under which the ancient plants of Banks Island grew. This information may provide insight into how the present day Arctic will respond to...

Principal Investigator: Lajeunesse, Patrick
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002
Summary: This research is concerned with the nature and style of glaciation as well as sea level changes and past climatic changes. The broad objective of the research is to obtain a long term paleoclimatic record (before the arrival of the Pre-Dorset people) fro...


Paleo-hydrology in the Arctic
Principal Investigator: CLARK, Ian D.
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1999
Summary: The objective of this project is to observe and collect rock specimens from limestone outcrop sites. These samples will be used to interpret groundwater flow systems that occurred in the Arctic in the past when the climate was much warmer. Several sites will be visited for the purpose of examining and collecting rock specimens along the Dempster highway south of Inuvik. Two day trips west of Akla...
