Summary: The proposed research will continue the long term objective of documenting and understanding the impacts of recent climate change on northern terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The short term objectives of this research are: (1) to investigate the impacts of permafrost degradation and subsequent thaw slumping on freshwater ecosystems; (2) to examine the limnological implications of drained lakes ...


Environmental change in the 20th century, Mackenzie Delta region, Northwest Territories.
Principal Investigator: Pisaric, Michael FJ
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005
Summary: Climate change is expected to have the greatest impacts in northern regions. Permafrost degradation is a likely outcome of warming temperatures. As temperatures increase and permafrost begins to melt, there is likely to be significant impacts on aquatic communities as nutrients and contaminants accumulated in permafrost are released into lakes. This study will examine the impact of permafrost degr...
