1992 Summary:
This will be the final field season of this bedrock mapping project, which is being done to update geological knowledge in the Lac de Gras area (which was last mapped in the 1940s). Detailed mapping, geochemical and geochronologcical studies will be used to help understand the geological evolution of this area. Mapping will be accomplished by foot and boat traverse with fixed and rotany wing sup...

1994
Summary:
This will be the final summer of field work for this project. The detailed mapping data in combination with geochemistry will enable the researcher to gie a detailed geological history of the area, including timing of certain geological events (age of volcanism and granite plutons) as well as a deformational history....

1993 Summary:
Ships of many types and ships designed for many purposes transmit Canada's SouthernNorthwest Passage. Each of these ships posesa potential danger to the passengers & crews aboard as well as to the environment. The Canadian Hydrographic Service is conducting surveys to produce nautical charts to assist ships to travel safely. Potentially shallow passages will be surveyed to ensure safe navigation c...

Automatic climate stations have been operating at sites on Baffin Island since 1985. Data are collected from these instruments during annual visits to the NWT. At the same time, standard observations are made of other environmental conditions in the vicinity of these stations. During 1994, visits to Amadjuak Lake, the northwest part of the Barnes Ice Cap and the top of the Penny Ice Cap will be...

1993 Summary:
The researchers will conduct 2 types of surveys: (1) radar surveys will be conducted using a portable radar unit; and (2) small samples of ice from glaciers and moraines will be collected in order to conduct analysis which will determine the chemical make-up of the ice. This information will be used to determine characteristics about the glaciers as well as help in our understanding of the climat...

1993
Summary:
The researcher will be conducting geological field work in the region defined by the NTS Winter Lake Map (No. 86A). The work will involve surveying the land features and collecting samples of the rock and sediments in order that this information can be summarized on a geological map....

1993
Summary:
The researcher will conduct archaeological research on Kodlunarn Island in order to better understand the Frobisher voyages. Excavation at the Frobisher base camp will provide information on the nature of these voyages as well as their influence on Inuit of the region....

19911987 Summary:
The field component of this project consists of examination of exposures of bedrock during ground surveys (on foot) at selected sites. This work will produce a geological map showing rock types, ages and positions as well as the degree to which the layers of rock have been folded or faulted during times in which mountains were formed. Licence issued for purposes of using the Inuvik Research Cent...
