Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5596.
The objectives of this study are to conduct spatially detailed surveys of water quality and stream discharge along the Miner River, in order to examine how water quality responds to organic-rich peatland tributary streams and retrogressive thaw slumping; and, to examine the seasonal water quality of Caribou Creek and...

Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5295.
The objective of this project is to examine the oxygen (d18O) and hydrogen (d2H) isotopic compositions of stream water and precipitation for 11 peatland stream watersheds along the Inuvik-to-Tuktoyaktuk Highway (ITH). This information will be used to understand the hydrology of the contributing watershed. In particula...

2018 Summary:
The objectives are:
1) to examine how the water quality of streams varies spatially and determine what drives these differences (i.e., latitude, vegetation, surficial geology); and,
2) to examine how the water quality of streams varies temporally and determine what/how seasonal changes in water flow control water quality.
The research team will collect water samples from a suite of study site...
