Permafrost and ground hazard mapping along the Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway using airborne geophysics
Principal Investigator: Froese, Duane G
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5688. The objectives of this research project are to: 1) fly multiple lines of airborne electromagnetic (AEM) geophysical data (between 4 and 6 parallel lines ~100 m apart) between Inuvik and Tuktoyaktuk, beginning and ending just outside the communities; 2) using the geophysical and geological data, produce maps of the In...


Pemafrost and Sump Investigations in the Mackenzie Delta Region
Principal Investigator: Kokelj, Steven V
Licensed Year(s): 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 2000 1999
Summary: This research will investigate: A) the physical and chemical characteristics of permafrost in the Mackenzie Delta region to identify areas of ice-rich permafrost or thaw sensitive terrain. Second; B) the effect of permafrost degradation on water quality...


Investigation of ground ice development in sediments of the Mackenzie delta area.
Principal Investigator: Burn, Chris R
Licensed Year(s): 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The purpose is to collect samples of ground ice and to measure air, ground, and lake temperatures. We use the information to help understand how the permafrost in the area has changed in the last few thousands years, in order to determine what might happen in the future....


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....


Reconstruction of Holocene Environments
Principal Investigator: Begin, Christian
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The research team will investigate a few localities to determine the best sites to study eolian deposits (sand dunes) and features related to permafrost degradation. Samples of granular and organic deposits will be taken....
