Stratigraphy and Sedimentology of Carboniferous to Triassic Strata
Principal Investigator: Dixon, James
Licensed Year(s): 1996 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The research will involve measuring the thickness of the rocks, identify the rock types, observe the structures within the rocks and collect samples for additional laboratory analyses. Most of the work will be conducted using helicopter support out of Inuvik and Tuktoyaktuk, visiting the sites on a daily basis. If some sites require more than one day's work I will set up a small two-man camp for t...


Stratigraphy of coastal barriers and under-ice current measurements at Atkinson Point, Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Hequette, Arnaud
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The Canadian Beaufort Sea coast undergoes rapid changes in formation, including the formation and changes of spits and barrier islands. Climatic change, combined with a rise in sea levels, could result in longer ice-free periods, increased wave action and higher rates of coastal retreat and erosion. By measuring spits and barrier islands, analyzing the make-up of the coastal sediments, and measu...


Investigation of Ground Ice Development in Sediments of the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Burn, Chris R
Licensed Year(s): 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The Research will continue to examine the hydrology of frost heave in the ideal environment of a lake-bottom. In addition some experimental trials of frost heave in equipment of various sizes will be conducted in winter time. Summer activities are planned in the outer Delta to examine the distribution of ice in the upper layers of permafrost and to investigate permafrost conditions beneath shallow...


Licence #2086
Principal Investigator: Mode, W.M.
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: Lakes will be cored and samples taken to obtain pollen stratigraphy. Wave cut cliffs will be described and sampled in terms of their stratigraphy. Marine fossils will be collected for dating purposes....

Principal Investigator: Nelson, Alan
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: Wave cut cliffs will be described in terms of their stratigraphy and samples collected for dating and classification of the sediments for the glacial stratigraphy of the Kivitauba'k foreland...
