Palaeontology of the Summit Creek Formation, western Northwest Territories, Canada
Principal Investigator: Vavrek, Matthew J
Licensed Year(s): 2012
Summary: The research team will be prospecting for and collecting Cretaceous fossils from the Summit Creek Formation in order to better understand what terrestrial biodiversity was like at high latitudes at that time. This project is a continuation of the collaborative research program on ancient biodiversity in the Canadian Arctic. Recently, the research team completed work supported by Polar Continental ...


Cambrian sedimentology and paleontology
Principal Investigator: Pratt, Brian R.
Licensed Year(s): 1995 1993
Summary: The Cambrian period is an interval of geologic time that is poorly known in arctic Canada. Previous studies have been very basic and almost no fossils have been recovered. Sections of sedimentary rock will be measured in detail, with attention focused on the structure of the sediments as well as the presence of fossils. A map will then be constructed showing the layers in which fossils occur. ...


Paleontological Collecting and Stratigraphic Studies, Cornwallis and Ellesmere Islands
Principal Investigator: Melchin, Michael J.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: The researcher will study the distribution of graptolite and what it reveals about the timing of geologic events and ancient geographic distributions. Study will also be continued on the geographic and ecological distribution of particular graptolite species between the deeper-water sediments of the Hazen Formation and the shallower-water strata of the Cape Phillips Formation....
