Principal Investigator:Wolfe, Alexander P. Licensed Year(s):1992
1991
1990 Summary:
During the last glacial period, 110,000 to 5,000 years to present some lakes escaped glaciation. The Researcher will retrieve sediment cores from three upland lakes to investigate the physical responses of the sediments and the biological responses of algae toward this climatic event....
Principal Investigator:Gulley, Angela L. Licensed Year(s):1992
1991
Summary:
The Researcher will: map the local geology adjacent the hotsprings; conduct a geochemical analysis of the springwaters; monitor the physical properties (pH, temp.); calculate natural discharge rates, conduct a pumping test and monitor depositional rates of tufa accumulations....
Principal Investigator:Gustavson, Kent Licensed Year(s):1991
1990
Summary:
The Researcher will determine how the feeding rates (also related to the availability of algal food) and metabolism of arctic marine zooplankton are related to their distribution and transportation through the waters of Barrow Strait....
Principal Investigator:Scheibli, Frank Licensed Year(s):
1988
Summary:
Frank Scheibli and Alex Wolfe are part of Dr. King's research party working on the Truelove Lowlands. They are sampling the waters of three larger lakes to record depths, temperatures, and chemical properties. They want to know how these things affect the formation of sediments on the bottom of the lake....
Principal Investigator:Moore, Robert M. Licensed Year(s):
1988
Summary:
to measure concentrations of some dissolved gases in ocean waters collected from depths of 100-500 m in order to trace the flow of cooled Atlantic waters into the Arctic basins...
Principal Investigator:Dickman, Mike Licensed Year(s):
1988
Summary:
To investigate photosynthetic sulphur bacteria present in two meromictic lakes; to determine chemical and biological characteristics of two meromictic lakes (water does not turn over and bottom layer is without oxygen)...
Principal Investigator:Stavinga, Janet M. Licensed Year(s):
1987
Summary:
To assess the chemical composition of arctic tundra ponds and atmospheric inputs including anthropogenic contamination in the vicinity of Iglolik, NWT by the collection and the analysis of surface water and sediment samples during the summer of 1987. In addition, precipitation samples will be collected....
Principal Investigator:Andrews, John T. Licensed Year(s):1988
1987
Summary:
To obtain a series of lake cores from outer Iqaluit, Baffin Island, NWT, from ca. 100 m. above sea level down to sea level; examine the cores for changes in the diatom floras which respond to shifts in the pH of the water and salinity, as well as samples for radiocarbon dating and pollen analysis....
Principal Investigator:MacIsaac, Hugh J. Licensed Year(s):
1985
Summary:
To determine the nature of zooplankton community structure in both acid and alkaline ponds....
Principal Investigator:Frederking, R. Licensed Year(s):
1984
Summary:
(1) Measure general environmental factors, obtain temperature and salinity profile of the ice cover. (2) Ice features will be described an dcoumented. (3) Measure ice movements by using arrays of reflectors and an electronic distance measure device. (4) Measure ice pressures....
