Carbon sequestration in boreal forests during regeneration process after forest fire disturbances.
Principal Investigator: Matsuura, Yojiro
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5340. Main objective of the project is to re-start and maintain study sites after two growing season without any census and sample collections. The research team will also establish additional study sites for regeneration process and soil condition monitoring (detection of permafrost table depth). The team will try again to...


Short and long term effects of forest fires on the stability of carbon pools in the arctic permafrost and subarctic forests (ARCTICFIRE)
Principal Investigator: Koster, Kajar
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2015
Summary: The aim of this project is to study the short term and long term effects of different fire intensities on the decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) in northern boreal forests under changing fire regimes. The objectives are to: 1) explore the short and long term effects of forest fires with different intensity on above- and belowground biomasses; 2) explore changes in albedo, snow depths an...


Recent changes in carbon source-sink relationships and greenhouse gas emissions in forest and peatland ecosystems along the Mackenzie Valley region of Canada
Principal Investigator: Bhatti, Jagtar
Licensed Year(s): 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007
Summary: The objectives of this research project are to: 1. map and assess changes in the distribution and composition of forest and peatland ecosystems due to climate changes; 2. estimate carbon storage (and variation) in boreal to arctic ecoregions of the Mackenzie valley; and 3. assess interannual and seasonal variations and key processes controlling carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) dynamics. ...


Carbonate-Hosted Lead-Zinc (Mississippi Valley Type) Occurrences in Northern Alberta and Southern Northwest Territories.
Principal Investigator: Turner, William
Licensed Year(s): 2002 2001
Summary: Transport of the research team to sites will be by truck, contingent on road access. Tent camps will be established for housing in the field. The camp will consist of 2 researchers, for the months of August and September, with possible sporadic visits by other researchers throughout the summer. Field activities will involve examining and documenting lead-zinc occurences, and collecting lead-zi...
