Objective(s): To investigate water balance and hydrologic cycling in a watershed underlain by discontinuous permafrost;
Project Description: The Researcher and his assistant will collect samples of snow, rain, stream water, pond water and ground water from undisturbed sites in the Manners Creek Basin. Measurements of naturally occurring chemicals and isotopes in surface and subsurface waters will be used to study the movement and mixing of waters in a boreal watershed in the zone of continuous permafrost.
