Field Sampling and Collecting of Tertiary Sediments in the Geodetic Hills Fossil Forest Locality, Eastern Axel Heiberg Island, NWT, for Plant Macro-Fossils
Principal Investigator: Gruchy, C.G.
Licensed Year(s): 1990 1989 1988 1987
Summary: The Researcher and team will study the Geodetic Hills Locality. They will collect plant macrofossils to identify and classify the fossil pollen and to determine botanical affinities, deduce and describe the paleoecology and the paleoenvironment....


Nicholas Lake Project/George Lake Project
Principal Investigator: Ott, Bruce
Licensed Year(s): 1990 1989
Summary: The Researcher and his team will be collecting baseline environmental data on natural conditions at Nicholas and George Lakes. This includes collecting water, soils and vegetation information....


Experimental Plantings and the Establishment of a Research Transplant Garden in the Grounds of Arctic College, Iqaluit
Principal Investigator: Aiken, Susan
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher will test some very standard agriculture seeds that have been developed in Alberta to determine whether they will grow in test plots in Iqaluit and Lake Harbour. She will also identify areas across the NWT which may be suitable as long term climatic change monitoring sites....


Apical Dominance and Growth Form in Herbaceous Sub-Arctic Plants
Principal Investigator: Vardy, Catherine
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher will survey growth forms at two sites: one highly disturbed (i.e. a roadside) and one undisturbed site ( i.e. a field). The plants will be measured and a shoot removed from approximately 20-100 plants. Seeds will be collected....


Carbon Allocation in the Arctic Poppy
Principal Investigator: Corbett, Andrea
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher will supply Carbon-14 to leaves and flowers of the Arctic Poppy. The plants will be harvested and parts treated to determine where the carbon was allocated....


Recovery of High Arctic Vegetation from Disturbance by Human Occupation
Principal Investigator: Forbes, Bruce C.
Licensed Year(s): 1990 1988
Summary: Bruce Forbes is looking at how quickly plants are invading the old settlement of Clyde River where the ground was cleared for buildings and roads. This site will be compared to undisturbed ground and similar disburbances at other human occupancy sites within the High Arctic....


Plant communities of Shoran Lake and Sachs Harbour, Banks Island, NWT
Principal Investigator: Thannheiser, Dietbert
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: Dr. Thannheiser is from West Germany. He will be collecting plants and describing the types and quantities of plants growing in different habitats....


Reconstruction of post-glacial vegetation and climate in the Inuvik and Tuktoyaktuk area
Principal Investigator: Ritchie, J.C.
Licensed Year(s): 1988 1987
Summary: Dr. Ritchie is looking at live plants and the remains of plants at the bottom of lakes to see how plants and weather have changed since the glaciers left the Inuvik and Tuktoyaktuk area 10,000 years ago....


The relationships between modern pollen sedimentation and present vegetation distribution on Truelove Lowland, Devon Island.
Principal Investigator: Pearce, Cheryl M.
Licensed Year(s): 1987
Summary: To 1) collect and analyze present-day pollen sedimentation from major plant communities on several high arctic site types, 2) to correlate this production with actual plant cover, and 3) to compare the modern pollen rain to historical pollen deposits analyzed in the Department of Geography, University of Western Ontario (R. King) and during the I.B.P. Project (Jankovska and Bliss)....


Analysis of plant communities in the areas of Bathurst Inlet and Coppermine
Principal Investigator: Thannheiser, D.
Licensed Year(s): 1987
Summary: To continue to study plant communities and their distribution patterns....
