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....


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: The Researcher and his team will study the age, chemistry and fossil organisms preserved in the lake sediments of the Truelove Lowland and similar coastal lowlands. The information will be used to reconstruct the environmental changes that have taken place in these Polar Oases during the last 40,000 years....


Enivronmental Studies of the Ice-Bearing Region in Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Fujino, Kazuo
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and field team will conduct a geological survey and topographic traverse survey around the massive ground ice. They will take samples for ecological study and geochemical analysis....


Quaternary Geology of Hudson Strait
Principal Investigator: MacLean, Brian
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1990
Summary: The Researcher and his team will be travelling through Hudson Strait by research ship to take samples of the deposits and sediments in the Strait. They will be investigating the history and conditions of the area based on the sediments record in order to detail the late glacial and post glacial conditions of the Strait....


Paleontology and Stratigraphy of the Ordovician - Silurian Boundary on Northeastern Cornwallis Island, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Melchin, Michael J.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: The Researcher and his assistants will carry out fieldwork which involves the collection of fossils (most of which are microscopic), rock samples, photographs and notes on the outcrops on northeastern Cornwallis Island. The work is to lead to a better understanding of the environmental changes brought about by changing climate....

Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: To study the fossils and layering of certain rock formations. Samples of rocks and fossils will be collected for subsequent analysis....


Licence #2471
Principal Investigator: Bradley, Raymond S.
Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: To study the recent geological history of the area and to core lake bottoms in an attempt to ascertain the nature of past climates. The core samples will be analysed for the presence of pollen and small organisms (diatoms and foraminifera)....
