2019 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4623.
The overall objective of this study is improved understanding of heavy metals in Sewage Disposal Facilities (SDFs) and Solid Waste Disposal Facilities (SWDFs) in the NWT. The proposed study aims to answer the following questions: 1) What is the existing treatment capacity of SDFs in NWT for heavy metals?; 2) Are SDFs ...

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...

2007 Summary:
The objective of this research is to assess variations and processes controlling CO2, CH4 and N2O dynamics along the Mackenzie Valley, to investigate the amount and character of greenhouse gases released, and to understand conditions controlling soil GHG emissions.
Soil gas sample tubes will be sampled on a seasonal basis for gas concentration (CH4, N2O, CO2) and isotope ratios. The response of...
