Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5941. Our aim for this study would be to better understand the climate history and paleoecological since the last glacial maximum at the margin of glaciated regions and to help compare regions between formerly glaciated and unglaciated regions in terms of changes in biodiversity, the movement of the tree line and the effec...

Année(s) de permis: 2013
Résumé: The objectives of the CaHiGeo project are to sample paleogene rocks for sedimentological and stratigraphical analysis and dating; to sample the underlying rocks for correlation with equivalent formations in Northern Yukon and dating; and to measure the possible deformation of the paleogene rocks at the inferred location of sealed faults (Eskimo Lake Fault Zone). The methods used in the field fo...

chercheur principal: Gosse, John C
Année(s) de permis: 2013
Résumé: The primary objectives are to i) collect fossils (i.e. peat, bone, wood, and other sedimentary proxies) for paleoenvironmental reconstructions and, ii) document the age of the Beaufort Formation (Fm) at Ballast Brook, northwest Banks Island using a new approach based on the exposure of quartz sand grains to cosmic radiation: terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide (TCN) burial dating. The cosmogenic nuclid...

Résumé: The research team proposes to revisit Duck Hawk Bluffs (DHB), southwest Banks Island, the “type section” for the formerly reported subsurface record. DHB offers an exceptional exposure along the north shore of Thesiger Bay, measuring 8 km long and up to 60 m high. Previous work assumed that the bluffs were composed of an undeformed “layer-cake” stratigraphy recording discrete depositional events ...

chercheur principal: MacNeil, Alex
Année(s) de permis: 2003 2002
Résumé: The purpose of this study (2003 component) is to examine the fossilized types of corals that are found in the regional geological formations. Locally these corals coalesced to form mini-reefs, with interesting ecological characteristics. From the study...

chercheur principal: Brand, Uwe
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992
Résumé: The Researchers will study sedimentary rocks and fossils that were formed more than 350 million years ago in warm tropical seas. The study helps to interpret the ancient environments and will outline which rock units were most favourable to generating and hosting economic mineral deposits....

chercheur principal: Jones, Timothy
Année(s) de permis: 1991 1990
Résumé: 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....

chercheur principal: Davis, P. Thompson
Année(s) de permis: 1980
Résumé: 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....

chercheur principal: Brigham, Julie K.
Année(s) de permis: 1979
Résumé: As part of a Mastre's degree to study the glacial history of the area. The raised marine terraces will be studied. Glacial and glaciomarine sediments will also be examined....
