Principal Investigator:McIntyre, David J. Licensed Year(s):
1992
1990 Summary:
The Researchers will collect rock samples for study of fossil algae (dinoflagellates) and will determine the geological age. They will correlate findings with similar material from wells and will determine climate and environment conditions at the time the rocks were deposited....
Principal Investigator:Jette, Helene Licensed Year(s):19951993
1992
Summary:
The Researchers will collect sediment core samples from up to six lakes. They will be taken to a laboratory where palynological and diatom studies will be conducted....
Principal Investigator:Hills, L.V. Licensed Year(s):1993
1992
1991 Summary:
The Researchers will determine the timing and depositional environments for the Hassel, Bastion Ridge, Strand Fiord and Kanguk formations....
Principal Investigator:Wolfe, Alexander P. Licensed Year(s):
1992
19911990 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....
Principal Investigator:Burden, Elliott Licensed Year(s):
1991
199019881987 Summary:
The Researcher and associate will collect samples of shale and sandstone from cliffs. They will be taken to Memorial University to be analysed for their remnant magnetization. This research applies in regional correlation studies of marine and terrestrial strata and in site specific studies of the geologic development of this part of the Arctic....

1987
Summary:
To complete surficial geology and vegetation of the south shore of Amadjuak Lake (led by Dr. Jacobs) and to complete palynology and limnology of lakes on southeastern Meta Incognita Peninsula....
Principal Investigator:Short, Susan K. Licensed Year(s):
1982
Summary:
To analyze changes in the modern and fossil pollen assemblages of the Central Canadian Arctic through the collection and analysis of modern moss samples and peat and lake sections....
Principal Investigator:Davis, P. Thompson Licensed Year(s):
1981
Summary:
To undertake a study of recent climatic change associated with glacial history of the area. Ancient pollen samples will be collected and studied as well....
Principal Investigator:Mode, William N. Licensed Year(s):
1981
Summary:
To undertake a study of past climates through study of lake bottom core samples and analyzing them for pollen content....
