Natural Resources Canada - Canadian National Seismograph Network Operations
Principal Investigator: McKee, Lorne
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5415. The objective is to incorporate two existing seismic stations installed and currently operated by the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) into the Canadian National Seismograph Network (CNSN), where NRCan, through the Canadian Hazard Information Service (CHIS), would operate and maintain the stati...


Teleseismic investigations of the crust and mantle structure beneath Banks Island, NWT
Principal Investigator: Audet, Pascal
Licensed Year(s): 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015
Summary: This project is aimed at understanding the structure and evolution of the crust and mantle beneath Banks Island in the western Arctic by analyzing new seismic data collected from an array of broadband seismic stations. The objective is to provide information on crustal and mantle structures to determine whether Banks Island forms a rifted margin, or forms the northern extension of the Canadian Shi...


EarthScope Transportable Array
Principal Investigator: Woodward, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 2021 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013
Summary: This project consists of a large deployment of ground motion sensors (290 total) throughout Alaska and western Canada; 44 located in Yukon Territory and 9 in the Northwest Territory. (See www.usarray.org/alaska and the attached map.) Each station senses the ground movement from distant earthquakes and sends data via satellite or radio modem to a central receiving point in San Diego. The purpose...


Yukon-Northwest Seismic Network: Characterizing Earthquakes and Earth Structures
Principal Investigator: Audet, Pascal
Licensed Year(s): 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013
Summary: The objectives of this research project are: 1) to improve the detection and characterization of earthquakes occurring within the northern Canadian Cordillera (comprising the Mackenzie and Richardson Mountains) and surrounding areas, which is one the most seismically active areas of Canada; and 2) to study the deep Earth structures to understand the formation and evolution of the Cordillera. To th...
