Licence #4075
Principal Investigator: Brown, Malcolm P.
Licensed Year(s): 1984
Summary: A study of lake quaternary glacio-lacustrine sediments and abandoned lake shorelines on northeast Ellesmere Island, including surveying and mapping the uppermost lake shorelines to establish the nature of isostatic uplift in the area. Studying the exposed lake sediments and collecting organic material for dating purposes....

Licence #4014
Principal Investigator: Laymon, Charles A.
Licensed Year(s): 1984
Summary: Mapping moraines and other glacial features, collecting samples of till and noting minerology of erratics encountered on the surface, measuring the orientation of striae and other ice directional features, measuring the elevation of raised marine deposits and sampling these deposits for shells which will be radiocarbon dated and used for amino acid geochronolgy....

Licence #2695
Principal Investigator: Washburn, A.L.
Licensed Year(s): 1981
Summary: To undertake a long-term study of Quaternary (recent) geology and periglacial processes (e.g. erosional processes adjacent to a glacier). One of the principal functions this will be to establish the base camp in the Resolute area....
