Hydrothermal Regime of Riparian Terrain in Continuous Permafrost, Western Canadian Arctic
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5168. The specific objectives of the project are as follows: 1) Determine the spatial extent, distribution, and timing of winter icing events in streams along the Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk Highway (ITH) through ground-based and aerial reconnaissance of stream crossings; 2) Identify relations between physical watershed charact...


A Program to Evaluate Changing Northern Lake Ice Regimes
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5155. The objective of this project is to complete on ice snow depth, ice thickness and composition survey along with collection under ice core water quality information. Sample locations from previous years are located using a handheld GPS. On ice snow depth is measured using a tape measure. An ice auger is used to pene...


Dempster Hwy Km 40.2 fish and fish habitat assessment
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5069. The goal is to conduct a fish and fish habitat assessment at watercourse at Km 40.2 on Dempster Highway. At the site the fish and fish habitat survey will be conducted at six stream transects established 100 m upstream, 50 m upstream, centerline, 100 m downstream, 200 m downstream, and 300 downstream. Where poss...


Characterizing the sensitivity and response of freshwater systems to permafrost thaw in the Western Canadian arctic
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2021 2021 2020 2019 2018
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4934. The purpose of this study is to develop a method of characterizing the sensitivity and response of streams and rivers to regional variability in permafrost thaw in the Beaufort Delta Region, Western Canadian Arctic. All of the field team members are from within the NWT. This field program will follow the attached E...


Long-term hydrological dynamics of Canada’s largest watershed: Climate controls on water quantity of the Mackenzie River Basin
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2020
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4705. The Mackenzie River Basin (MRB) is one of the largest cold-water, intact boreal ecosystems in the world and has unique Earth-system’s processes associated with sea ice formation, global circulation of deep ocean currents, carbon storage, and biogeochemical cycling. This unique global resource is also critical for supp...


Permafrost in the western Arctic
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4663. The primary objectives of this research are: 1) to develop and test new methods of monitoring permafrost landscape change; 2) to investigate the impacts of natural and human disturbance on permafrost terrain and the ground temperature conditions in natural environments and in communities; and 3) to assess the physical...


ITH Metal Chemistry
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2019
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4544. The objectives of this research are: 1) To investigate the environmental chemistry of the borrow pits and immediate surrounding areas to determine what, if any, environmental risk do the elevated concentrations represent; 2) To investigate the environmental chemistry of an undisturbed area around the Inuvik to Tukto...


Comparing the snow depths and densities of different habitats in the Beaufort Delta region
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2018 2017
Résumé: The objective is to compare differences in snow depth, density and morphology of a heavily forested site and a tundra site. The Principal Investigator (PI) will study the effect landscape (forest vs. tundra) has on seasonal snow pack evolution and physical properties (density, temperature, snow grain morphology, and stratigraphy) of the snowpack. These results will be compared to historical data (...


Permafrost, river, and groundwater inputs of trace elements and nutrients to the Mackenzie River estuary
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2016
Résumé: The objectives are to measure a suite of trace elements and isotopes (TEIs) in the active layer and permanently frozen layer of permafrost cores sampled near the Mackenzie River, and to compare these concentrations to those observed in submarine groundwater discharge and Mackenzie River discharge in order to determine whether permafrost-associated TEIs are being transported to the coastal Arctic. ...


Biogeochemistry of Lakes in the Mackenzie Delta
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2017 2016 2015 2014 2010 2009 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993
Résumé: The Objectives of this research are to: 1) Improve our understanding of microbial carbon-processing in Mackenzie Delta lakes and how it is affected by the changing water levels; and 2) Decipher the impact of water level changes on the ability of the Mackenzie Delta to affect riverine nutrient flow to the ocean. Specific activities for the coming field season include the following: (Goal 1) I...
