Environmental change in the 20th century, Mackenzie Delta region, Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Pisaric, Michael FJ
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005
Summary: The objective of this research is to study the impacts of climate change on boreal and aquatic ecosystems in the Mackenzie Delta region. By doing so, the researchers hope to gain a better understanding of the effects of long-term climate change on these ecosystems. Their study will utilize dendrochronological and paleolimnological methods to examine spruce forests and lake sites situated in the in...


Paleolimnology and sedimentology of lakes on the unglaciated terrain of Fosheim Peninsula, Ellesmere Island
Principal Investigator: Wolfe, Alexander P.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researcher will continue to investigate lakes on the unglaciated terrain of Fosheim Peninsula to determine the former environments of high and low arctic lakes. By analyzing the physical and chemical properties of the sediments, as well as the preserved biological remains within them, the nature and timing of rapid environmental changes at the close of the last glaciation may be explained....


Holocene Paleolimnology of a High Arctic Lake, Truelove Lowland, Devon Island, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Vandenbygaart, B.J.
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: The Researcher will continue a chronology of environmental change during the development of Immerk Lake....


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....
