Principal Investigator: Woo, Ming-ko
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: 1. To study snow distribution and ablation processes in a small basin; 2. To relate the regime of stream flow and lake storage changes to basin meltwater contributions and evaporation....

Principal Investigator: Anderson, John C.
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: 1. To conduct hydrologic studies with regard to highway construction. Measurements of pre-melt snow, ice covers, snow melt, rainfall, stream discharge, suspended sediment concentrations and water temperature in rivers will be taken. 2. Some aerial and road based reconnaissance will also be undertaken....

Principal Investigator: English, Michael C
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: Observation of break-up on the Slave River Delta. Measurement of snow depth, density, water equivalence and snow layering before Break-up....

Principal Investigator: Uemura, Naomi
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: As part of one man/dog sled Polar expedition to conduct chemical analysis of ice and snow, analysis of snow crystals to determine upper atmosphere movements, analysis of air samles for pollutant content and photography of snow to assist in determining air currents....

Principal Investigator: Woo, Ming-ko
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To study snow ablation processes in a small Arctic basin in the vicinity of Resolute Bay, N.W.T. To relate the regime of stream flow to basin meltwater contributions and evaporation losses....

Principal Investigator: Gill, D.
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: Perform an aerial survey of big game animals in the vicinity of MacMillan Pass. Conduct a snow survey in the MacMillan Pass area. Conduct a large mammal count while doing the snow survey....

Principal Investigator: Slater, J.E.
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: To provide a sufficient data base on hydrology in order to make an adequate Assessment of the Polar Gas application. Will include: qualitative descriptions of fluvio-morphologic features of selected beaches, discharge studies, and sediment baseline data collection, an investigation of active layer hydrology, snow hydrology and the snowmelt cycle and the investigation of the physical limnology of...

Principal Investigator: Goth, David
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: 1) To collect data on seasonal snow depths, densities and temperatures, 2) To collect snow samples for pollen measurement, 3) To make observations on the presence of erratics and weathering on exposed rocks, 4) To compile a daily records of precipitation, temperature, cloud ...

Principal Investigator: MacKay, D.
Licensed Year(s): 1975
Summary: To determine how spilled oil behaves and interacts wit the northern environment; how far and how quickly spilled oil will spread on land and in water. To ascertain how low temperatures and snow affect its spread; how deeply oil penetrates into the vegetation, litter or peat and mineral soil layers and what proportion will be lost to evaporation. To provide an indication of the area which would b...
