Using Tree Rings and Lake Sediment to Reconstruct Streamflow and Climate in the Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Lamoureux, Scott F
Licensed Year(s): 2002
Summary: The objective of the research is to supplement and extend instrumental climatological and hydrological records in the NWT using dendrochronology (tree-ring) and varved lake sediment analysis. Transportation to the site will be by charter aircraft from Fo...


Role of Climate and Sea Change on Early Cambrian Evolution
Principal Investigator: Pope, Michael
Licensed Year(s): 2003 2002 2001
Summary: The research team will fly to Norman Wells by commercial airline, and then travel to the field by helicopter or Twin Otter. Travel in the field will be by canoe, or on foot. Field camps will be low impact, and will be occupied for less than 14 days. All human waste will be buried, and all non-burnable garbage will be packed out. The research team will measure, describe and sample the Early Camb...


Luminescence Dating of Build-Up of the Laurentide Ice Sheet
Principal Investigator: Hardy, Francois
Licensed Year(s): 2001
Summary: The research team will be transported from Yellowknife to Eyeburry Lake by fixed wing aircraft. From here, the research team will travel approximately 120 km down the Thelon River by canoe, and study the stratigraphy of sediments on the shoreline. Field camps will be located along the river, and will be for one night only. All human waste will be buried, and all non-burnable garbage will be pack...


Early Quaternary and Late Tertiary Geology and Geomorphology, Arctic Islands
Principal Investigator: Fyles, John G.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: On Melville and Bathurst Islands, the Researchers will locate and describe the occurrence of high-level gravels and sands, record evidence of the flow-direction of the rivers in which they originated and search for plant and insect fossils that may provide clues about the age of these deposits and about the climate and environment at that time....
