Principal Investigator: Melchin, Michael J.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: The researcher will study the distribution of graptolite and what it reveals about the timing of geologic events and ancient geographic distributions. Study will also be continued on the geographic and ecological distribution of particular graptolite species between the deeper-water sediments of the Hazen Formation and the shallower-water strata of the Cape Phillips Formation....

Principal Investigator: Hill, Philip R.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992
Summary: The purpose of this project is to understand how the Mackenzie Delta and adjacent coastal regions have developed over the last 18,000 years, since the last glaciation affected the region. The project will includes investigating the sub-surface development of the delta and studying the processes by which sediment supplied by the river is transported to the continental shelf and coastal waters....
