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...

Summary:
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, etc.) in the northern Mackenzie Basin.
To quantify landscape disturbances and vegetation regeneration patterns since 1985 Landsat satellite images will be obtained, that will provide refle...

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...
