Summary:
The objectives of this project are to:
1) use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, UAVs, etc.) to document the rate and extent of landscape change (slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.) in the NWT; and,
2) use field sampling and monitoring to determine the causes and impacts of regional changes in vegetation, and permafrost.
To quantify land...

The core objective of this research is to work with Inuvialuit and Gwich’in experts to document and share local observations of environmental conditions. Over time this will build a record of observations, against which future changes can be compared. To document local observations this research will employ methods including participatory photo-mapping, participatory-video, web-based mapping, phot...

Summary:
The objectives of this research project are:
1) To use remote sensing to document the rate and extent of landscape change on Banks Island;
2) To examine the effects of tundra disturbances using detailed field investigations; and
3) To establish permanent vegetation and berry monitoring plots to track change over time.
Use remote sensing to document the rate and extent of landscape change o...

This project has three main objectives:
Objective 1: To use satellite imagery (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, etc.) to document the rate and extent of landscape change (slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, drained lakes, etc.) in the northern Mackenzie Basin.
To quantify landscape disturbances and vegetation regeneration patterns since 1985 the research team will obtain Landsat satellite image...

Summary:
There are two objectives associated with this research. The first is to establish vegetation and permafrost monitoring sites in the region. The establishment of these permanent monitoring sites will improve our understanding of base-line environmental conditions in the region. The second goal for the 2010 monitoring season is to build local capacity for monitoring vegetation and permafrost in t...
