Using the past to inform the future: A paleoecological perspective of the impacts of drought and fire on lakes, permafrost and forests
Principal Investigator: Pisaric, Michael FJ
Licensed Year(s): 2019 2018 2017 2016
Summary: The objectives of this research are to examine the frequency and severity of past wildfire and drought (drought-like) conditions in the southern Northwest Territories. Specifically, the research team will examine the following questions: 1) how frequent and severe have fires been in the past; 2) are fires becoming more frequent/severe due to the impacts of climate change; 3) what impact does wildf...

Precambrian banded iron-formations: palaeoceanographic, palaeoclimatic, and palaeobiologic implications
Principal Investigator: Aubet, Natalie
Licensed Year(s): 2011 2010
Summary: Objectives The researcher intends to better resolve the climatic and oceanic chemical conditions that ultimately led to the origins of animal life and the so-called ‘Cambrian explosion’ by focusing on the exceptionally well-preserved ancient banded iron formations from the Rapitan Group (NWT, Canada) and the overlying carbonate units. Specifically, detailed chemical and isotopic analyses of these...
