Sensitivity of high-latitude lakes to climatic & development disturbances
Principal Investigator: Prowse, Terry D
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005
Summary: The researchers want to develop a model for small Arctic lakes that will help them see how sensitive or vulnerable Arctic lake ecosystems are to various forms of disturbance, such as future climate change or water withdrawal. In order to develop their m...


Tracking arctic river water by geochemical means: Mackenzie Delta case study
Principal Investigator: Falkner, Kelly K.
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researchers will be tracking the fate of Mackenzie River waters through the Delta and into the Arctic Ocean by using natural geochemical markers. Water samples will be collected by drilling through the ice at 50 locations along the main channel of the river and out over the shelf. This information is important for understanding the circulation of Arctic Ocean waters, the processes of global ...


Biogeochemistry of lakes in the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Lesack, Lance
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016 2015 2014 2010 2009 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993
Summary: This research involves a variety of activities that involve investigating the chemical makeup of ice, streams and lakes. In addition, some work will be conducted on measuring the microscopic and larger organisms (e.g., algae and bugs) present in streams. Most of the field work will be based out of the Inuvik Research Centre with some work conducted in collaboration with Dr. P. Marsh at Trail Val...


Hydrology and Geochemistry of Terrestrial Drainage in the Expedition Fiord Region of Axel Heiberg Island, NWT
Principal Investigator: English, Michael C
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992 1991
Summary: The researcher and his team will attempt to understand the terrestrial hydrological pathways of water draining into surface streams, rivers and lakes in the high arctic. As well, they will attempt to understand the vadose and phreatic zone dynamics in the seasonal active layer, and quantify the geochemical reactions within the groundwater....


The Hydrogeology and Deposition of the Rabbitkettle Hotsprings and Tufa Mounds, Nahanni National Park, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Gulley, Angela L.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991
Summary: The Researcher will continue a project begun in 1991 which included mapping the local geology adjacent to the hotsprings, conducting a geochemical analysis of the springwaters, monitoring the physical properties, calculating natural discharge rates and conducting a pumping test and monitoring of depositional rates of tufa accumulations....
