Active Layer Monitoring Network in the Mackenzie Valley
Principal Investigator: Nixon, Mark
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: This ongoing survey examines permafrost so as to better understand how the active layer varies locally and regionally and how it will respond to environmental change, including but not restricted to climate change. The research team will survey from For...


2003 Norman Wells Summer Field Geotechnical Investigation Program - Sahtu Settlement Area
Principal Investigator: Graburn, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 2003
Summary: This study will gather information to assess the soil and ground conditions at representative frost heave study sites within the municipal boundaries of the Town of Norman Wells. The information will be used in assessing the feasibility of a pipeline in...


2003 Terrestrial Studies in the Sahtu Settlement Area
Principal Investigator: Povey, Andrew
Licensed Year(s): 2005 2004 2003 2002
Summary: These terrestrial studies will include vegetation and soils investigations. The primary goals are to classify vegetation, landforms, soils and permafrost in the project area, to identify locations of rare plants and uncommon plant communities, and to co...


2002 Terrestrial Studies in the Sahtu Settlement Area
Principal Investigator: Povey, Andrew
Licensed Year(s): 2002
Summary: The vegetation component of the 2002 baseline studies will focus on completion of the vegetation typing surveys. Initially, a reconnaissance flight will be required over Sahtu Private Lands along the study corridor. This flight will be used to identify...


Ecological and geomorphological investigations in the alpine tundra of the western Mackenzie Mountains
Principal Investigator: Kershaw, G. Peter
Licensed Year(s): 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993
Summary: Since 1974, the permafrost landforms in this area have been studied. Investigations have included the collection of wind and soil temperatures, wind speed and precipitation levels. This information will increase our knowledge about how permafrost affects the shaping of the land. In addition, information will be collected on how vegetation responds to human activities as a result of the Canol Pr...


Influence of petroleum contamination on soil thermal properties
Principal Investigator: Winnicky, Kim
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: In this study, oil spill sites will be identified and information will be collected on the vegetation, soil and amount of surface oil present. Five soil cores from the sample sites will be collected and analyzed for oil concentrations as well as used for experimentation in order to assess soil thermal properties. The researcher will drive to the study site (Mile 222 on the Canol Road) from Ross ...
