Norman Wells Straw Bales and Reflective Surface Test
Principal Investigator: Graburn, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005
Summary: The objective of this project is to test the thermal properties of straw bales and reflective surfaces for use on permafrost slopes along a potential pipeline route in the Mackenzie Valley. These materials might be used in conjunction with or as alternatives to wood chips to protect the exposed slopes from surface erosion and reduce the rate of thawing. In mid-February 2006 a bulldozer and brush c...
