Investigating the Effects of Winter Overland Travel in sub-Arctic Boreal Forest
chercheur principal: Kanigan, Julian
Année(s) de permis: 2012 2011
Résumé: In discontinuous permafrost of the southern NWT, cleared transportation corridors, such as seismic lines, have recently been associated with permafrost loss, increased soil moisture and vegetation changes. Permafrost loss can lead to ground subsidence, infrastructure instability and the release of stored carbon into the atmosphere. The research team will test whether seismic lines can be construc...

Examining Spatial and Temporal Variation of Ground Temperatures in the Mackenzie Delta, Northwest Territories
chercheur principal: Kanigan, Julian
Année(s) de permis: 2007 2006
Résumé: The Mackenzie Delta is sensitive to both climate warming and human development. This project will contribute to a better understanding of ground temperatures in the Mackenzie Delta and will provide a baseline from which to assess future changes and cumulative impacts. Ground temperatures will be collected from the southern, central and outer delta regions. In the summer, about 30 boreholes (l...
