Indigenous Governance and Hide Tanning Theory
Principal Investigator: McDonald, Mandee
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5345. This research explores the work of an informal collective or network of (predominantly) Indigenous women who are regenerating Indigenous thought and political systems through hide tanning. It is an Indigenous feminist research project that explores contemporary hide tanning initiatives amongst Indigenous peoples in or...


Microbial community fingerprinting of natural resources
Principal Investigator: Iulianella Phillips, Bianca Patrizia
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5296. The research team aim to enhance mineral exploration success in glaciated terrains of northern Canada and generate knowledge about northern soil microbiome controls on greenhouse gas emissions. Soil samples will be collected over-top of a variety of geologically relevant structures, including kimberlite-hosted diam...


Carbon sequestration in boreal forests during regeneration process after forest fire disturbances.
Principal Investigator: Matsuura, Yojiro
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5340. Main objective of the project is to re-start and maintain study sites after two growing season without any census and sample collections. The research team will also establish additional study sites for regeneration process and soil condition monitoring (detection of permafrost table depth). The team will try again to...


Adult attitudes towards Dene Yatie/Zhatie: a community questionnaire (pilot project)
Principal Investigator: Coates, Alice
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5360. The main objective of the study is to provide context for a later investigation into the attitudes of adolescent Dene language learners to the language. This ‘context’ takes the form of answers to a short survey, designed to elicit answers about the importance of the language to community members and the reasons for t...


Identifying habitats that influence body condition and fitness of adult female caribou in the southern Northwest Territories [traditional knowledge component
Principal Investigator: Kelly, Allicia
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2020 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5351. The objectives of this project are to describe different plants and vegetation communities that offer different nutritional value to boreal caribou using both scientific language and traditional knowledge. The research team plan to create a plain-language document(s) that shares information on habitats, vegetation com...


Wetland status, change, and seasonal inundation dynamics for assessing the vulnerability of waterfowl habitat within the ABoVE study domain
Principal Investigator: French, Nancy H
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2020 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5205. The main project goal is to characterize changes in waterfowl habitat using remote sensing approaches developed during prior NASA ABoVE research campaigns. The first objective is to create wetland type and surface inundation products (maps) for the ABoVE boreal region. The second objective is to assess the efficacy of...


CoMet 2.0 Arctic
Principal Investigator: Fix, Andreas
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5211. This project will use aircraft-based instruments using both remote-sensing and in-situ-techniques to carry out measurements of methane and carbon trace gases and tracers related to their emissions. The results will help to better understand the global methane and carbon cycle. This mission makes use of the German r...


NASA Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) Airborne Initiative 2022
Principal Investigator: Miller, Charles E
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5304. The extended ABoVE Study Area includes most of northwestern North America west of Hudson Bay and north and east of the coastal mountain ranges. It encompasses the variability in the key types of ecosystems that are both unique to arctic and boreal regions in North America as well as being representative of the larger ...


Investigating Late Holocene Glacier Fluctuations in Nahanni National Park Reserve, Canada
Principal Investigator: Menounos, Brian p
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5303. The primary objective of this study is to date the formation of end moraines in the Northwest Territories using methods of Terrestrial Cosmogenic Nuclide (TCN) dating to develop a chronology of glacier change in this region. This chronology will be used to assess glacial response to Holocene climate with aims to eluci...


Understanding the Interactions between Wildfire Disturbance, Landscape Hydrology and Post-Fire Recovery in Boreal-Taiga Ecosystems
Principal Investigator: Bourgeau-Chavez, Laura L.
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4940. The overall goal of the proposed research is to improve understanding of the controls and impacts of a changing climate on the vulnerability and resiliency of boreal-taiga ecosystems to wildfire. This is being addressed through field sampling and process-based ecological and hydrological modeling of the 2014-2016 wild...
