NWT Streams and Rivers of the future: How permafrost thaw and groundwater activation are changing water resources (CIMP226)
Principal Investigator: Wright, Stephanie
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5522. The purpose of this study has four objectives: 1) Assess the spatial and temporal patterns of hydrologic change (groundwater and surface water) in the La Martre River and Trout River catchments (O1); 2) Identify the drivers, processes, and feedbacks responsible for the hydrologic changes identified in O1 and how they ...


Monitoring the impacts of permafrost thaw on water resources at Scotty Creek, NWT
Principal Investigator: Quinton, William L.
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5521. The long-term objective of this research programme is to improve the understanding, parameterisation and prediction of water flow and storage processes in peatland-dominated, thawing, discontinuous permafrost. Over the next 5 years, significant progress toward this long term objective will be made through the follo...


Lakes as sentinels of environmental change in discontinuous permafrost peatlands
Principal Investigator: Korosi, Jennifer B
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5468. The goal of this project is to understand and predict how lakes in discontinuous permafrost peatlands are changing in response to climate warming and loss of permafrost. The field activities for 2023 will focus on three regions/objectives: Inferring long-term environmental change in the Five Fish Lakes (Lue Túé ...


Active layer moisture and carbon dynamics in the wetland-dominated zone of discontinuous permafrost
Principal Investigator: Schincariol, Robert A
Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: An improved understanding of the thaw and drainage processes, and exchanges of energy and moisture that control the flow of water in the vast wetland region of Canada is needed to improve weather and climate change predictions. Large-scale experiments on soils of the Central Mackenzie River basin will be used to elucidate moisture and carbon transport processes in the active layer. Laboratory base...
