Sedimentology of the Cretaceous in the Mackenzie Corridor
Principal Investigator: Davison, Julia
Licensed Year(s): 2008
Summary: This licence was issued for the application # 831. The objective of this study is to improve the detail on publicly-available maps and look at unanswered geological questions about Cretaceous rocks in the Sahtu region. Geological tools have changed sufficiently since the previous maps were made to warrant another more detail-focused study. The aim of the field work is to make measurements and c...


Paleontology & Sedimentology of Late Proterozoic Reefs, Mackenzie Mountains, NWT.
Principal Investigator: Narbonne, Guy
Licensed Year(s): 2001 1999 1998 1996 1994 1992 1991 1989 1988
Summary: Field work will involve detailed measurement & description of stratigraphic sections using a range pole and compass, and mapping and selective sampling of reefs using a geological hammer. Follow-up work at Queen's University will involve analysis of field data and examination of samples using a variety of laboratory techniques. These reefs are an ecological "missing link" between the two major re...


Coastal Sedimentary Processes and Geotechnical Conditions, North Head Area, Richards Island, Canadian Beaufort Sea
Principal Investigator: Forbes, Donald L
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990
Summary: The Researchers will use the ARKTOS 5 amphibious vehicle for geophysical surveying in the vicinity of Tuktoyaktuk and the proposed Amauligak pipeline landing site on Richards Island. They will measure nearshore sediment dynamics using wave and current meters at selected locations in the vicinity of the proposed pipeline landing site at North Head....


Quaternary Geology, West-Central Axel Heiberg Island
Principal Investigator: Lemmen, Donald
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: The Researcher will map, describe, explain the surficial deposits and geomorphology and study glacial history and relative sea level changes. This will involve mapping and surveying as well as the collection of small samples for sedimentological, geochemical and paleoecological analysis....


Assessment of Non-Renewable Resources of the Bluenose Lake Area, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Jones, Timothy
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990
Summary: The Research team will continue work begun in 1990 to carry out a resource evaluation of the Bluenose Lake area. A national park has been proposed for the area. Before land can be set aside as a park reserve an assessment of non-renewable (oil, gas, minerals) resource potential is required....


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 Researcher will 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....


Quaternary Geology and Geomorphology of the Fosheim Peninsula, West-Central Ellesmere Island
Principal Investigator: Bell, Trevor
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1990 1988
Summary: This research is an extension of previous fieldwork completed in 1988 and 1989. Mapping surficial deposits and reconstructing former ice limits and sea level adjustments, investigations of landforms and associated sediments, collection and dating of organic material pertaining to terrestrial and raised marine deposits, and mapping distributions of glacial erratics will be undertaken....


Licence #2558
Principal Investigator: Davis, P. Thompson
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: To obtain sediment cores, peat samples, lichen growth samples and to map and date glacial land forms. This is part of a study of glacial and ancient climate history....
