Summary: The goal of this project is to compile updated baseline information/knowledge on the types, regional distribution, and controls (e.g. forests fires, climate change) of landslides. The main objectives of the field reconnaissance at landslide sites are six-fold: 1) to validate previous data collected through air photo interpretation and remote sensing techniques; 2) to carry out detailed mapping at ...

Summary: The Expansion Project proposes to supply power to the Snap Lake, Gahcho Kue, Diavik and EKATI mine sites by expanding the existing infrastructure at the facilities on the Taltson River at Twin Gorges and at Nonacho Lake. Studies characterizing baseline e...

Principal Investigator: Lockhart, W.L.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: The researcher and his team will engage in a bathymetric survey to map the contours of the bottom of Lac Belot, as well as determine the distribution of fish in the lake. Several soil samples will be collected to determine the amount of atmospheric dust fallout. As well, tissue samples from 6 lake trout and 6 ground squirrels are to be collected to compare some aspects of their biochemistry with ...

Principal Investigator: Davis, P. Thompson
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researchers will continue to map and survey glacial abrasion limits, collect, describe and analyze soil samples from the Pangnirtung Pass and Pangnirtung Fiord areas to determine the direction and vertical extent of ice flow....

Principal Investigator: Hooper, James Matthew
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: The Researcher will map the surficial geology and glacial landforms of the area using air photographs and field evidence. They will also verify interpretations made from air photos by checking mapped units on the ground and by collecting soil samples for laboratory analysis....

Principal Investigator: Dredge, Lynda
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: The Researchers will be undertaking systematic reconnaissance mapping as part of the national program for the Geological Survey of Canada. They will collect soil and rock samples for analysis in Ottawa....

Principal Investigator: Scotter, George
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and team will carry out this survey at the request of the community of Paulatuk. They will summarize the existing knowledge of the natural resources of the Bluenose Lake Region. A total of about 20 stops will be made to examine the vegetation, soil, wildlife and physiogeography and to collect plant and soil samples....
