Dehcho Indigenous Community Based Climate Change Monitoring
Principal Investigator: Low, Mike
Licensed Year(s): 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4812. The objective of this project is to increase collection of climate change indicators, while also training Dehcho Guardians to collect the same data independently in the future. This information in addition to the collection of traditional knowledge will show changes to the environment and the data can be used to prote...


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. ...


Active Layer Monitoring Network in the Mackenzie Valley
Principal Investigator: Nixon, Frederick M
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The active layer, overlying the permafrost layer, is the surface earth material that thaws and re-freezes each year. Active layer thickness and character can influence hunting, fishing, forestry, gardening, transportation and construction. Changes in the active layer can contribute to landslides which may damage structures, hamper transportation, affect water quality, and influence surface and sub...


Neoproterozoic Keele Formation, Mackenzie Mountains, NWT and its relation to to major Late Proterozoic glaciations.
Principal Investigator: Day, Edith
Licensed Year(s): 2001
Summary: The research team will be flown from Norman Wells to the base camp at Moose Horn River by helicopter. Moves to fly camps (Stoneknife River and Black Wolf Creek) will also be made by helicopter. The camp will consist of one sleeping tent per team member and one cooking tent. The research team will walk to data collection sites on foot. Data collection will consist of measuring rocks with a rule...


Effects of global warming on settlements and non-renewable resource development in the Mackenzie Basin to the year 2050
Principal Investigator: Bone, Robert M.
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: Should global warming occur, the environment and human landscape may be altered. The researchers will be using public information (Statistics Canada censuses and public documents) to collect data for this study: they will use this data to examine the possible impacts that global warming might have on the Mackenzie Basin ecosystem and the human population residing in this region. The results of ...
