NWT-wide Community based Water Quality Monitoring
Principal Investigator: Somers, Gila L
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4762. Water Quality Monitoring equipment is deployed at over 40 sites across the NWT to address community concerns. Community members were trained to use the following equipment: • Sondes: sit in the water and measure basic water quality parameters every 2 hours for up to 3 months. Analysis undertaken at Environment and...

The effects of wildfire on diverse aquatic ecosystems of the NWT
Principal Investigator: Tank, Suzanne E
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016
Summary: The objective of this study is to determine the effect of fire on water quality within the southern NWT landscape. The research team will work across the Taiga Plains and Taiga Shield ecoregions. Differences in landscape between these regions will affect the catchment response to fire. The team will also target catchments with variable permafrost extent, and wetland/lake coverage. The research ...

Effects of fire on peatland permafrost stability and carbon cycling
Principal Investigator: Olefeldt, David
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016 2015
Summary: The project team intend to study carbon cycling in peatland catchments, in order to determine whether the interactions between wildfire and permafrost thaw causes increased release of greenhouse gases from peatlands and aquatic ecosystems to the atmosphere, and thus cause amplified climate change. Given the overall objective of the project, the team intend to address five research questions: ...
