The Exeter Lake esker: Nature and origin of North America's longest esker
Principal Investigator: Bilak, Grayson S
Licensed Year(s): 2019
Summary: This research project aims to determine the nature and origin of the Exeter Lake esker, and focuses on further constraining key parameters for exploration purposes. Eskers are deposited in dynamic glacial environments, and many factors need to be considered during exploration including but not limited to; how far has the sediment traveled from the original source, how large of an area is the esker...

Quaternary studies on the northern Quebec coast and offshore islands in the Hudson Strait, Northeastern Canada
Principal Investigator: Gray, James T.
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: In previous years research, we have been able to prove the existence of an early opening of the Hudson Strait at the end of the last Ice Age, and to establish 4 important source areas for ice flows into Hudson Strait and Ungava Bay. Our 1992 work will permit us to expand and complete the work on several offshore islands, as well as sample from an exposure of old marine sediments in the Deception ...

Geoscientific Research - Bylot and Adjacent Baffin Islands, 1992
Principal Investigator: Shilts, William W.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The researcher and his team will determine the geological and climatic influences on the retreat, glacial and periglacial history of valleys in which retreating glaciers lie, to assess the relative influence of climate and the significance of this retreat in the context of the glacial and periglacial events of the past 10,000 years....

Late Wisconsin (Late Foxe) Glacial Extent in Pangnirtung Fiord - Cumberland Sound Area, Baffin Island, Canada
Principal Investigator: Davis, P. Thompson
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researchers will continue to map and survey glacial abrasion limits, collect, describe and analyze soil samples from the Pangnirtung Pass and Pangnirtung Fiord areas to determine the direction and vertical extent of ice flow....
