Using Tree Rings and Lake Sediment to Reconstruct Streamflow and Climate in the Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Lamoureux, Scott F
Licensed Year(s): 2002
Summary: The objective of the research is to supplement and extend instrumental climatological and hydrological records in the NWT using dendrochronology (tree-ring) and varved lake sediment analysis. Transportation to the site will be by charter aircraft from Fo...


Reconstructing Holocene history of the Mackenzie River Valley from fluvial sediment records, Fort Simpson to Arctic Red River
Principal Investigator: Coulombe-Pontbriand, Moise
Licensed Year(s): 2002
Summary: The study will attempt to reconstruct the past 10,000 year geomorphological and hydrological history of the Mackenzie River using sedimentological records of fluvial deposits. The researcher will travel by Zodiac boat from Jean-Marie River to Point Separ...


Arctic Sand Sheet Development
Principal Investigator: Murton, Julian B
Licensed Year(s): 2005 2001
Summary: The research team will operate from two fly camps beside the northern coast of Liverpool Bay, and two camps in the Mason Bay area in the northest portion of Richards Island. Transportation to the camps will be by float plane and boat. All human waste will be buried, and all non-burnable waste will be packed out. Equipment used will consist of shovels and trowels to clear slumped sediment from co...


Sedimentation in the Mackenzie Delta and Beaufort Sea Coast
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....
