Quaternary History of the Summer Island area, Tuktoyaktuk Coastlands
chercheur principal: Murton, Julian B
Année(s) de permis: 2008
Résumé: The objective this geological research is to reconstruct climate and environmental history of Richards Island before the last ice age using sediment and peat samples. Fieldwork around the Mason Bay camp will be carried out on foot and a small boat along the coastal bluffs in Summer Island, Richards Island and Hadwen Island. Fieldwork will be carried out by clearing slumped sand from coastal bluff...


Postglacial Paleoclimatology of the central and western Arctic Islands
chercheur principal: Gajewski, Konrad
Année(s) de permis: 2008 2004 2001 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Résumé: 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
chercheur principal: Johnson, Arthur
Année(s) de permis: 2005 2003
Résumé: 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...


Quaternary Glacial Geology and Sea-Level History of Melville Island, Western High Arctic
chercheur principal: Lajeunesse, Patrick
Année(s) de permis: 2012 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002
Résumé: 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
chercheur principal: CLARK, Ian D.
Année(s) de permis: 2000 1999
Résumé: 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...


Spatial variation in the isotopic composition of snowpack in the Mackenzie Delta area
chercheur principal: Burn, Chris R
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992
Résumé: This on-going research involves the assessment of isotopes in snowpack each winter. Collection of snow and ice at various sites along winter roads in the N.W.T. provides information about the composition of isotopes within a region. Isotopic composition of snow and ice taken from ice cores in Greenland and Antarctica have been able to provide information about past climates....


Early Quaternary and Late Tertiary Geology and Geomorphology, Arctic Islands
chercheur principal: Fyles, John G.
Année(s) de permis: 1992 1991 1990
Résumé: On Melville and Bathurst Islands, the Researchers will locate and describe the occurrence of high-level gravels and sands, record evidence of the flow-direction of the rivers in which they originated and search for plant and insect fossils that may provide clues about the age of these deposits and about the climate and environment at that time....


Tertiary Palynostratigraphy of the Beaufort-Mackenzie Basin
chercheur principal: McIntyre, David J.
Année(s) de permis: 1992 1990
Résumé: The Researcher and his assistant will collect rock samples for study of the fossil pollen to determine age, correlation with similar material from wells and to determine past climate and environments....
