Paleontological Collecting and Stratigraphic Studies, Cornwallis and Ellesmere Islands
Principal Investigator: Melchin, Michael J.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: The researcher will study the distribution of graptolite and what it reveals about the timing of geologic events and ancient geographic distributions. Study will also be continued on the geographic and ecological distribution of particular graptolite species between the deeper-water sediments of the Hazen Formation and the shallower-water strata of the Cape Phillips Formation....


Stratigraphy, Sedimentology and Palynology Kanguk Formation
Principal Investigator: Hills, L.V.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The Researchers will study the Kanguk Formation which is the last major marine transgression into the Sverdrup Basin. They will establish the age and environment in which the sediments were deposited. Organic matter will be analyzed to determine the petroleum generation potential of the formation....


Upper Paleozoic Basin Analysis of Sverdrup Basin
Principal Investigator: Beauchamp, Benoit
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992 1991
Summary: The Researcher and team will measure thickness of strata and collect rock samples from various localities on northwestern Ellesmere Island. The purpose of the work is to understand and reconstruct the geography of the area between 325 and 245 million years ago....


Devonian Carbonates and Reef Development
Principal Investigator: Pedder, Alan E.H.
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher will collect 1/2 to 2 kilogram samples of limestone. These are sent to a lab for processing which leaves small fossils of calcium phosphate. These are studied to determine their age and the conditions of the life of the fossils....


Sedimentology of Channel-fills and Point Bar Deposits of the Former Liard and South Nahanni Rivers
Principal Investigator: Smith, Derald
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and team will study the sediments ( mud and sand) in river cutbanks to reconstruct the paleogeography (river history) of the Nahanni Butte topographic basin....


Licence #2019
Principal Investigator: Salaun, M. Jean-Paul
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: 1) Reconstruction of the paleoclimatic and paleogeographic outline in which human occupancy developed. 2) Analysis of settlement pattern and land use during Paleo-Eskimo period. 3) Analysis of a Dorset Settlement in a paleo-ethnological perspective....
