Sustainable Water Governance and Indigenous Law Project
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2018 2017
Résumé: The goal is to enhance effective, equitable Indigenous co-governance of water resources through pursuing five objectives: 1)Critically conceptualize the potential for reciprocal coordination of, and complementarity between, evolving common ("Western") and Indigenous water law and governance frameworks; 2)Develop innovative methods for co-researching Indigenous Water Governance, based on collabor...

Community-based long-term monitoring of the Peel River near Fort McPherson
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2018 2017
Résumé: The objective of this research is to establish a community-based monitoring program in the Peel River watershed, based in Fort McPherson. Previous research has shown that multiple whitefish ecotypes (non-anadromous, semi-anadromous and anadromous, utilize the Peel River as spawning habitat, but it is unclear how much each ecotype contributes to harvester catches. As different ecotypes occupy d...

Evaluating the environmental impacts of permafrost mega-disturbances along the Dempster Highway, NWT
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010
Résumé: The objective of this research project is to document the extent of ecological change in impacted stream basins draining the eastern slope of the Richardson Mountains and to determine the mechanisms of slump initiation and stabilization. This study will focus on the Stoney Creek catchment, which runs parallel to the Dempster Highway and empties into the Peel River at Fort McPherson, NT. The catchm...

Sensitivities of high-latitude lakes to climatic & development disturbances
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2008 2007 2006 2005
Résumé: The objective of this study is to develop a hydro-ecological model for small Arctic lakes to assess the vulnerability of their ecosystems to disturbances, such as climate change or water withdrawal. To quantify geochemical loadings to lakes, a model is being developed by monitoring lakes and their contributing catchment (surface water flow). A climate station will be set up at 2 - 6 sites to mo...

Active Layer Monitoring Network in the Mackenzie Valley
chercheur principal:

Résumé: The active layer, overlying the permafrost layer, is the surface earth material that thaws and re-freezes each year. Active layer thickness and character can influence hunting, fishing, forestry, gardening, transportation and construction. Changes in the active layer can contribute to landslides which may damage structures, hamper transportation, affect water quality, and influence surface and sub...
