Investigating the Effects of Winter Overland Travel in sub-Arctic Boreal Forest
Principal Investigator: Kanigan, Julian
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2011
Summary: In discontinuous permafrost of the southern NWT, cleared transportation corridors, such as seismic lines, have recently been associated with permafrost loss, increased soil moisture and vegetation changes. Permafrost loss can lead to ground subsidence, infrastructure instability and the release of stored carbon into the atmosphere. The research team will test whether seismic lines can be construc...
