Massive Ice Study in Granular Deposits
chercheur principal: Pollard, Wayne H
Année(s) de permis: 2006 2005 2004 2003
Résumé: This study is an investigation of massive ice in granular deposits in the Mackenzie Delta area and northeastern North Slave region. The presence of massive ice in aggregate deposits results in resource management problems, particularly for the oil indus...


Carbonate-Hosted Lead-Zinc (Mississippi Valley Type) Occurrences in Northern Alberta and Southern Northwest Territories
chercheur principal: Turner, William
Année(s) de permis: 2002 2001
Résumé: A two-year collaborative study (2001-2002) between the Geological Survey of Canada - Calgary and CS Lord Northern Geoscience Centre in the southern NWT is commencing its second year. The purpose of the project is to develop a stronger understanding of an...


Using Tree Rings and Lake Sediment to Reconstruct Streamflow and Climate in the Northwest Territories
chercheur principal: Lamoureux, Scott F
Année(s) de permis: 2002
Résumé: The objective of the research is to supplement and extend instrumental climatological and hydrological records in the NWT using dendrochronology (tree-ring) and varved lake sediment analysis. Transportation to the site will be by charter aircraft from Fo...


Reconstructing Holocene history of the Mackenzie River Valley from fluvial sediment records, Fort Simpson to Arctic Red River
chercheur principal: Coulombe-Pontbriand, Moise
Année(s) de permis: 2002
Résumé: The study will attempt to reconstruct the past 10,000 year geomorphological and hydrological history of the Mackenzie River using sedimentological records of fluvial deposits. The researcher will travel by Zodiac boat from Jean-Marie River to Point Separ...


Banded Iron Formations and "Snow-Ball Earth" Events
chercheur principal: Hoffman, Paul
Année(s) de permis: 2001
Résumé: The research team will be based out of Norman Wells, and establish a series of fly camps in the research area between 1 July and 10 August. Travel to fly camps will be by helicopter; travel in the field will be on foot. Fly camps will be low impact, and will be occupied for less than 14 days. All human waste will be buried, and all non-burnable garbage will be packed out. Stratigraphic sections...


Luminescence Dating of Build-Up of the Laurentide Ice Sheet
chercheur principal: Hardy, Francois
Année(s) de permis: 2001
Résumé: The research team will be transported from Yellowknife to Eyeburry Lake by fixed wing aircraft. From here, the research team will travel approximately 120 km down the Thelon River by canoe, and study the stratigraphy of sediments on the shoreline. Field camps will be located along the river, and will be for one night only. All human waste will be buried, and all non-burnable garbage will be pack...


Arctic Sand Sheet Development
chercheur principal: Murton, Julian B
Année(s) de permis: 2005 2001
Résumé: The research team will operate from two fly camps beside the northern coast of Liverpool Bay, and two camps in the Mason Bay area in the northest portion of Richards Island. Transportation to the camps will be by float plane and boat. All human waste will be buried, and all non-burnable waste will be packed out. Equipment used will consist of shovels and trowels to clear slumped sediment from co...


Geological Mapping, Stratigraphic and Structural Analysis in the Aklavik Range and Adjacent Parts of the Northern Richardson Mountains.
chercheur principal: Lane, Larry S
Année(s) de permis: 2001
Résumé: The research team proposes three activities. Geological mapping at a 1:50,000 scale, carried out by the Geological Survey of Canada, will provide an updated and detailed geological map of the Aklavik Range, which was previously mapped at reconnaissance scale in the 1960's and 70's. Stratigraphic studies will consist of detailed measurement and description of specific rock units of Jurassic and Cr...


Central Foreland NATMAP Project
chercheur principal: Lane, Larry S
Année(s) de permis: 2002 2001 2000
Résumé: The research team will resume mapping bedrock and surficial geology at 1:50,000 and 1:250,000 scales, continuing a project begun in the summer of 2000. The base of operations will be either at Fort Liard, or at an existing base camp on the southeastern La Biche River. Fly camps will be accessed by helicopter. Fly camps will be visited by 2-4 crew members for about 1 week. From the fly camps the ...


Basin Analysis of the Liard Basin.
chercheur principal: Jowett, David
Année(s) de permis: 2001
Résumé: The research team will complete a study of the Cretaceous strata in the Liard Basin area, using micropaleontology, geochemistry and various correlation techniques. Fieldwork will begin on 1 June 2001, and continue through most of July. The research team will access remote rock outcrops by helicopter, or in some cases by inflatable boat on some of the major rivers (Liard River and Petitot River)....
