Environmental Studies Across Tree Line
chercheur principal: Kokelj, Steven V
Année(s) de permis: 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005
Résumé: This licence is being issued for the scientific research application no. 978. The objectives of this research are to: 1) Monitor permafrost conditions in the Mackenzie Delta region; 2) examine freeze-back of the active layer and associated strength properties of freezing soil; 3) examine the influence of shrub removal on frozen ground and snow conditions at abandoned drilling-mud sumps; 4) inve...


Near-surface ground ice in sediments of the Mackenzie Delta region, N.W.T.
chercheur principal: Kokelj, Steven V
Année(s) de permis: 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 2000 1999

The research team will consist of Steve Kokelj (Carleton University - principle researcher) and Doug Joe (Inuvik). The proposed fieldwork will begin in Inuvik in April, with the main part of the field work being carried out from 30 July to 20 August. In April, the research te...


Retrogressive Thaw Slides in the Richardson Range: Climate Change Indicator
chercheur principal: Lacelle, Denis
Année(s) de permis: 2000
Résumé: This is a study of retrogressive thaw sumps produced by the exposure and melting of massive ice in continuous permafrost (Richardson Range, NWT). These sumps are recently occurring and presumably a result of global climate change. This research will recognize retrogressive thaw slumps that have massive ice, identify the type of massive ice (glacier buried or segregated) and measure the rate of ...


Active Layer Monitoring Network in the Mackenzie Valley
chercheur principal: Nixon, Mark
Année(s) de permis: 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Résumé: For this on-going study, measurements such as maximum depth of thaw and soil surface movements recorded after the previous visit, will be collected. Monitoring apparatus will be reset this season. Sites in the Mackenzie Delta, from Tsiigehtchic to Tuktoyaktuk will be visited in April. Most sites from Fort Simpson to Tuktoyaktuk will be occupied during the summer....
