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...

Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5294.
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 ...

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...

This study is a continuation of a project that began in 2001. The researchers are studying the flow and storage of water in the Scotty Creek watershed. The data they collect will help them to create a model that will do a better job of estimating the volume and timing of basin runoff in wetlands in discontinuous permafrost terrain. The information they have collected so far suggests that peat p...
