Slave River Hydro Development
Principal Investigator: Wilbur, Steve
Licensed Year(s): 2008
Summary: This licence is issued for the scientific research application # 926. The goal of this river geomorphology program is to describe the Slave River’s channel landforms and sediment characteristics and assess the sensitivity of these river landforms to potential changes in stream hydrology. Field visits will include a reconnaissance flight via helicopter along the Slave River (from Fort Smith ...


Summer 2001 Hydrology Surveys within the Gwich'in Settlement Region: Biophysical Baseline Studies in support of the Mackenzie Delta Gas Feasibility Study
Principal Investigator: Sawetsky, Les
Licensed Year(s): 2001
Summary: A detailed data collection program will be undertaken on 20 streams. All major streams will be included in the survey. The proposed survey will begin in late July and continue until early September 2001, and will consist of comprehensive studies at selected streams, as discussed below, to define how the streams behave and how they change in time. The focus of the hydrology component is on descr...

Channel Morphology Studies: Slave River Delta
Principal Investigator: English, Michael C
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1996 1995
Summary: The field crew will live on the delta for approximately 8-9 weeks at a site established by the principal investigator in 1997 on Steamboat Channel. Transportation will be by boat. Three channels will be studied in detail. At each study site the researchers will measure the speed of the flow using an electronic velocity meter, measure the cross sectional profile of the channel with tape and rod ...


Geomorphological and hydrological research on valley formation in Arctic and subarctic environments
Principal Investigator: Schunke, Ekkehard
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1994 1992 1990
Summary: The researcher will measure discharge, run-off velocity, sediment load, dissolved load and microclimate parameters (air and ground temperatures, relative humidity, evaporation, precipitation and radiation) in small valleys of James Creek. They drive to the location in a 3/4 ton truck which is parked in an abandoned quarry near the road. They walk to their data collection sites. The observations...


Geomorphologic and Hydrologic Analysis of Surface Features of the Mackenzie Delta, NT Using Spacial Image Analysis.
Principal Investigator: Boyes, Donald M.
Licensed Year(s): 1995 1994 1990
Summary: The collection of the field data is required to collaborate satellite image classifications and interpretations concerning water body measurements, plant community types and sedimentation patterns. Field measurements will include measuring ground distances and recording plant characteristics. Nothing in the field area will be destroyed or removed....


Coastal Morphology and Sediments of Foxe Basin
Principal Investigator: Sadura, Steven
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: Mr. Sadura is continuing the study begun last summer by Dr. Martini in Foxe Basin. They are looking at the form and shape of the coastline and the bottom of the ocean in Foxe Basin. They will be collecting samples of soil and rock from along the coastline and the ocean bottom....
