Mass Balance of Arctic Glaciers and Arctic Pollution
Principal Investigator: Koerner, Roy M
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003
Summary: The objectives of this ongoing research project are: (a) to monitor climate change by measuring the changing volume of the ice cap and maintaining an automatic weather station, and (b) to monitor air and snow pollution by sampling snow and sending it to be analyzed. Based out of the Polar Continental Shelf Project in Resolute Bay, NU, two personnel will fly by Twin Otter to the ice cap, and liv...


Geological conditions affecting industrial and community development in the coastal and nearshore regons of the western Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Solomon, Steven M
Licensed Year(s): 2010 2009 2008 2007
Summary: The Western Canadian Arctic is one of the most rapidly changing coastlines in the world and one of the most sensitive to climate change. The aim of the study is to obtain a better understanding of the geological conditions in the coastal zone and nearshore region in order to provide the government and stakeholders with the tools to ensure sound management of renewable and non-renewable resources i...
