2013
Résumé:
The Government of the Northwest Territories – Department of Transportation (DOT) proposes to conduct geotechnical investigations in the winters of 2013 and 2014. Geotechnical investigations will include drilling of boreholes, sampling and analysis of granular material collected, and installation of thermistor (temperature) cables. The geotechnical investigations are conducted to support design and...

Résumé:
The goals of the hydrotechnical research are to:
- learn if there are possible problem areas due to water or ice along the proposed road;
- choose the best proposed bridge location so that a new bridge won't wash out like the temporary one does; and
- decide on length of bridge so that abutment locations can be chosen for later geotechnical drilling sites.
The goals of the geotechnical resea...

2006 Résumé:
The main objective of this project is to improve the understanding of triggering factors and slope failure mechanisms of landslides in the Mackenzie Valley. This knowledge will enable better environmental impact assessments of new infrastructure projects proposed in the region.
Investigations carried out in 2006 will continue with detailed mapping of landslides. Soil sampling will also be condu...

Résumé:
The Geological Survey of Canada maintains a network of active layer and permafrost temperature monitoring sites in the Mackenzie region in order to document the response of permafrost conditions to climate change. Gaps exist in the network in the permafrost zones north of Norman Wells, the Mackenzie Delta region, and on shorelines and coastlines. Enhancement of the network is essential to provide ...

Résumé:
Peel Plateau and Plain is an area with hydrocarbon potential spanning the NWT-Yukon border. A primary objective of this project is to expand geoscience knowledge to stimulate petroleum exploration, industry investment, and economic development for the benefit of Northerners. This is year one of a four year project.
Three geologists will be flying by helicopter out of Inuvik on a daily basis t...

2004 Résumé:
The research team is working to become familiar with the impact of human disturbances on vegetation in northern Canada for their carbon studies. The objective of this study is to collect vegetation and biophysical data for use as verification of ground cover type and disturbance for use in satellite imagery classification and biomass and soil sampling for carbon modeling along the Ingraham Trail....

199219921991 Résumé:
The Geological Survey of Canada, as part of its on-going research activities, is planning to carry out a geotechnical survey in order to improve certain techniques used in investigating permafrost and ground ice characteristics. The techniques used are shear wave seismic reflection profiling (to determine soil properties) and drilling (to determine the origin of massive ground ice bodies in the v...
