Effects of wildfire on biomass combustion in boreal peatlands and forests
Principal Investigator: Turetsky, Merritt R.
Licensed Year(s): 2011
Summary: The objective is to quantify the amount of fuel combustion and carbon losses during wildfires in boreal conifer forests and peatlands. These data will allow us to quantify climatic and weather controls on the severity of biomass burning. Boreal forests and peatlands store a large amount of carbon in vegetation and soils. Climate change is predicted to increase summer drought, which could mak...

Impacts of Oil and Gas Activity on the Peoples in the Arctic Using a Multiple Securities Perspective
Principal Investigator: Elliott, Milissa A
Licensed Year(s): 2008
Summary: This project seeks to identify and measure specific characteristics of plants to determine the current baseline conditions of the vegetation, collect grass samples to test for different species of fungi and integrate traditional knowledge of environmental systems with current biological sampling. Transects (a long straight line) will be measured out from the edge of a road to about 1 km away fr...

Surveys of Rare and Exotic Plants in the NWT
Principal Investigator: Oldham, Micheal
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: Indigenous rare plants exist in the NWT, including in parts of the Mackenzie Mountains and the Beaufort Sea coast (especially in areas that were not glaciated). Alien species may be spreading along roads. There are 94 species of alien plants, transported to the territories by human activity. Surveys pf alien and rare plants will be conducted along roads in the North, South Slave and DehCho reg...

Tammerlane Baseline Studies
Principal Investigator: Hoos, Rick
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: The objective is to obtain sufficient baseline data to develop a lead and zinc mine adjacent to the old Pine Point property. The owl survey to identify species presence and breeding territories in the vicinity of the study area will include an evening broadcast-call program that will commence 0.5 hours after sundown to 0.5 hours before sunrise in April and May. This owl survey will target the Bor...

Forest Health at a Gas Well Site near Fort Liard, NWT
Principal Investigator: Enns, Katherine
Licensed Year(s): 2003
Summary: This project will assess the sulphur dioxide impacts of a natural gas well production test on vegetation in complex, steep terrain and establish a biomonitoring system for tracking changes in vegetation health in the vicinity of a natural gas well. Well...

2003 Terrestrial Studies in the Deh Cho Region
Principal Investigator: Povey, Andrew
Licensed Year(s): 2004 2003 2002
Summary: These terrestrial studies will include vegetation and soils investigations. The primary goals are to classify vegetation, landforms, soils and permafrost in the project area, to identify locations of rare plants and uncommon plant communities, and to co...

Preconstruction biophysical site assessment (wildlife, vegetation) of potential well locations and flow line options within the Significant Discovery Area, and post-construction vegetation and permafrost monitoring on the Cameron Hills Gathering System
Principal Investigator: Hong, Tom
Licensed Year(s): 2002
Summary: A pre-construction biophysical site assessment will focus on wildlife and vegetation. The proposed well-sites will be examined on foot, and the flowlines walked to document vegetation types, including rare species if present. Main vegetation types will b...

Measuring Genetic Diversity in Small False Asphodel, Tofieldia pusilla (Liliaceae), in Glacial Refugia, Disjunct Populations on Lake Superior and Across its Broad Arctic Range : A Tool for Prioritizing Sites for Conservation
Principal Investigator: Line, Jennifer
Licensed Year(s): 2000
Summary: This research will contribute to an increased understanding of ecological integrity in Nahanni National Park, provide information on the importance of glacial refugia as banks of genetic diversity and highlight the value of genetic diversity as an indicator of ecological integrity. The researcher will be transported to sampling sites within the park by Parks Canada staff (plane, helicopter). At...
