Environmental Change in the western Canadian Arctic Islands
chercheur principal: England, John H
Année(s) de permis: 2012 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002
Résumé: Geological mapping and sampling, radiocarbon dating, and cosmogenic dating techniques will be used to reconstruct sea level change and glacier dynamics for Prince Patrick, Eglinton, and Melville islands since the last glaciation. In order to better understand possible future climatic conditions, it is important to obtain palaeoenvironmental data from these regions. The broad objective is to ob...


Field measurements to constrain data for use in a numerical model which will quantify the growth, maintenance and disappearance of thaw lakes over time scales of tens to thousands of years
chercheur principal: Plug, Lawrence
Année(s) de permis: 2004
Résumé: The overall objective of this research is to construct and test predictive computer models that show the evolution of lowland permafrost landscapes. Surveys and radiocarbon dating of drained basins will be undertaken and canoe-based surveys will determin...


Freezing history and depositional setting of massive ground ice in the Canadian High Arctic
chercheur principal: Bell, Trevor
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1990 1988
Résumé: This study will provide a better understanding of permafrost conditions in the high arctic as well as the environmental conditions that lead to permafrost formation. Study sites include the Fosheim Peninsula on Ellesmere Island and May Point and Mokka Fiord on eastern Axel Heiberg Island....


The Quaternary history of Scoresby Bay, Ellesmere Island
chercheur principal: Gualtieri, Lyn
Année(s) de permis: 1993
Résumé: The purpose of this research is to determine the amount of ice coverage during the last glaciation by investigating the landforms that occur today. I will also record the change in sea-level and the rise in the land as the glaciers receded. Evidence for the movement of glaciers onto eastern Ellesmere Island from Greenland will be collected. The data collected in this field season will contribut...


Mackenzie Delta Hydrology and Ecosystem Interactions
chercheur principal: Marsh, Philip
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992 1991
Résumé: The research will study changes in the water levels of a variety of lakes in the Mackenzie Delta. Investigations will include consideration of factors controlling the lake levels, introduction of floodwater from the Mackenzie River, rainfall on to the lake, smowmelt runoff into the lakes and evaporation from the lakes....


Quaternary Geology, West-Central Axel Heiberg Island
chercheur principal: Lemmen, Donald
Année(s) de permis: 1991
Résumé: The Researcher will map, describe, explain the surficial deposits and geomorphology and study glacial history and relative sea level changes. This will involve mapping and surveying as well as the collection of small samples for sedimentological, geochemical and paleoecological analysis....


Quaternary Geology of Northwest Baffin Island
chercheur principal: Dyke, Arthur S.
Année(s) de permis: 1990
Résumé: The Researcher and his team will make maps of land features and material that rests on rocks....


Quaternary Geology and Geomorphology, Southern Melville Peninsula, NWT
chercheur principal: Dredge, Linda
Année(s) de permis: 1990
Résumé: The Researcher and her assistant will map the terrain and take soil and rock samples for laboratory studies....


Licence #2563
chercheur principal: Watts, S.H.
Année(s) de permis: 1980
Résumé: To continue a study of rock weathering features associated with sea level salt weathering and other long-term weathering process. Samples will be collected for future study, dating and cataloguing....


Licence #2440
chercheur principal: Andres, John T.
Année(s) de permis: 1979
Résumé: To study the glacial and sea level history of the area....
