Paleoenvironment of the Truelove Lowland Area, Devon Island, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: King, Roger H.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: Dr. King and his team will continue their study of the record of past environmental changes preserved in the sediments of the Truelove Lowland. Once again the focus of their field work will be the sediments that have accumulated in the larger, deeper lakes and the soils in the areas surrounding these lakes....


Paleosol Evolution, Correlation, and Associated Mineralization, Thelon and Hornby Bay Basins, NWT
Principal Investigator: Gall, Quentin
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990
Summary: The Researcher will collect samples of the sub-Thelon paleosol (ancient weathering horizon in the rocks). These samples will be taken back to Carleton University, Ottawa to be chemically analysed and systematically classified....


Limnology and Paleoecology of Arctic Lakes
Principal Investigator: Smol, John P
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990
Summary: The research team will sample approximately 20 lakes located within a 100 km radius of Tuktoyaktuk and within the immediate vicinity of Inuvik. At each lake they will analyze the water for major environmental variables and remove some of the lake mud for future analysis of algal remains....


Pollen study to examine past trends in climate.
Principal Investigator: Gajewski, Konrad
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2004 2001 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researcher and his assistant will collect small sediment samples from a series of small un-named lakes on Somerset, Bathurst and Cornwallis Islands. The samples will be analyzed for pollen and other organisms for their studies of past climates and environments....


Paleoecological and Geological Study of the Isortoq River and Flitaway Lake, Baffin Island; Collection of Arctic Coleoptera
Principal Investigator: Morgan, Alan
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and team will take samples of organic sediments and process them to remove insect and plant fossils. Identification of these fossils will provide the basis for a paleoenvironmental analysis by comparing the fossil organisms to modern ones....


(1) Stratigraphy, Sedimentology, Paleontology, Paleomagnetism of the Tertiary Beaufort Formation, Northwest Banks Island (2) Quaternary Stratigraphy and History of Northwesten Banks Island
Principal Investigator: Vincent, Jean-Serge
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: A camp will be set up on morthwestern Bands Island (Ballast Brook). Sections along rivers and the coast will be examined by the various researchers to determine the nature of the various sediments and their fossil content....


Palaeoenvironment of Truelove Lowland (Devon Island) as Determined from Lake Sediments
Principal Investigator: Smith, Rod
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: Rod Smith and Louise Hollingsworth are part of Dr. King's research party working on the Truelove Lowland. They will be extracting columns of soil from the bottoms of the larger lakes to determine what the climate was like long ago. They will also collect soil samples from the areas surrounding the lake for comparative purposes....


Palaeoenvironment of Truelove Lowland (Devon Island) as Determined from Peat Bogs
Principal Investigator: Somr, Christopher
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1988 1987
Summary: Chris Somr is returning as part of Dr. King's research party working on the Truelove Lowland. He is extracting columns of soil from peat bogs to determine what the climate was like long ago....


Licence #2253
Principal Investigator: Ritchie, J.C.
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: To examine and sample the unconsolidated sediments of various small lakes in an area surrounding Hyndman Lake (50 km. radius) ESE of Inuvik, for the purpose of making laboratory analyses of Carbon - 14 age, pollen stratigraphy and other microfossils. The ultimate objective is to reconstruct the past vegetation and environment of the area....
