Using computer models to understand what influences mercury levels in the Beaufort Sea Shelf food web
Principal Investigator: Giang, Amanda
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5518. The objectives of this project are to develop and apply a computer model of mercury bioaccumulation in the Beaufort Sea Shelf food web; to estimate the effects of selected environmental changes on historical Beaufort Sea beluga MeHg concentrations from (1970-2010s); and, to investigate potential future trajectories of...


Studies of greenhouse gas release and environmental processes associated with thawing permafrost in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region
Principal Investigator: Morse, Peter D
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5500. The goals of this multi-year-long project are to assess greenhouse gas (methane and carbon dioxide) release from warming permafrost and tundra lakes in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR) and to study associated carbon dynamics and microbiological processes, including the release of mercury to the environment. ...


Permafrost slumping and land-water connections on the Peel Plateau
Principal Investigator: Tank, Suzanne E
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5249. The objective of this research is to understand how permafrost slumping increases the mobilization of carbon, nutrients, and toxins (mercury) from land to water, and the effects of this transport on stream ecosystems and the global carbon cycle. Over the next several years, the research team plan to measure stream che...
