Northwest Territories Ice Patch Study - Geophysical Project
Principal Investigator: Moorman, Brian J
Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: Ice patches in the Mackenzie Mountains are areas of permanent ice that last through the summer months and often contain frozen caribou remains (mostly dung) and archaeological artifacts such as hunting weapons and tools. As the climate warms, these ice patches are beginning to melt, and there is a risk of losing the biological and archaeological information they contain. Using a technique known a...

Environmental Assessment for Proposed Oil and Gas Development Activities in the Gwich'in Region, NWT.
Principal Investigator: Melton, Derek
Licensed Year(s): 2002 2000
Summary: Researchers will assess fish habitat (by documenting the potential of waterbodies) and to determine the presence or absense of wildlife in the vicinity of the proposed project. A search for registered archaelogical sites within the proposed area will also be undertaken. Information from these studies will form part of an environmental assessment for the proposed project. Researchers will access...

Trilobite biostratigraphy of the Middle Cambrian Rockslide Formation (southern Mackenzie Mountains)
Principal Investigator: Pratt, Brian R.
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2002 2000 1998
Summary: We will study rocks in the Backbone Ranges of the Mackenzie Mountains, chartering a helicopter from Watson Lake to install and move light-weight camps and bring back samples. The strata of interest are exposed on mountainsides and brick-sized samples will be collected at measured intervals, labelled and placed in plastic sample bags. Enclosed fossils are recovered after preparation in the laborat...

Assessment of Stream Crossings for Planned Improvements to the Mackenzie Valley Winter Road.
Principal Investigator: Johnstone, Robin
Licensed Year(s): 1999
Summary: The proposed field program is designed to provide site-specific information on stream crossings, for planned improvements to the Mackenzie Valley winter road route. Researchers will travel to the crossing sites by helicopter from the closest community. At each crossing location, habitat assessments, water quality samples and fish census techniques (outlined in the DFO fisheries research permit) m...

Proterozoic reefs in the Mackenzie Mountains
Principal Investigator: Narbonne, Guy
Licensed Year(s): 2001 1999 1998 1996 1994 1992 1991 1989 1988
Summary: For several years researchers have been examining a rock unit called the Sheepbed Formation in the Mackenzie Mountains. In 1998 fossil reefs were located in this structure. The goal of the 1999 field season is to identify the types of organisms which created the reef structures and what the climate was like when they were built. Members of the field party will be transported to the base camps by h...
