Landscape Change in the Western Arctic
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2025 2024 2023
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5594. The main goal is to use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, and Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS)) to document regional landscape change (tundra fire, infrastructure, saline flooding, slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.). 2) Use field sampling and monitoring t...

chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2023 2022
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5613. The project with investigate impacts of permafrost slumping on water quality, benthic macroinvertebrate communities, fish communities and ecosystem function by advancing research on thaw slumps within the Stony Creek Watershed. The research team will directly collaborate with the Northwest Territories Geological Surve...


Recent, rapid environmental change in the western Canadian Arctic
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2023
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5573. To understand how landscape changes caused by climate warming are impacting aquatic ecosystems, particularly lakes and streams. These disturbances focus primarily on permafrost thaw, in the form of thaw slumps and landslides. The understanding derived will allow better understanding of how water quality and aquatic ha...


Impacts of permafrost thaw on land cover and downstream water quality
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2023
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5568. The primary objective of this project is to link long-term records of ground temperature and permafrost conditions with changes in landcover and water quality of adjacent ponds and lakes. In other words, how thawing permafrost alters terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem properties. Along the Mackenzie Valley corridor...

The Arctic Great Rivers Observatory project studies the six largest rivers in the Arctic: the Mackenzie and Yukon Rivers in North America, and the Ob', Yenisey, Lena, and Kolyma Rivers in Russia. The research team are interested in understanding how climate change is impacting Arctic rivers. The team take measurements...


Development of a Biological Monitoring Program to Detect Change in Stream Health Along the Dempster–Inuvik–Tuktoyaktuk-Corridor
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2022 2021 2020 2019
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5323. The purpose of this project is to establish a stream biomonitoring program along the Dempster–Inuvik–Tuktoyaktuk-Corridor to understand the current environmental conditions associated with past and newly developed road infrastructure. The research team will establish a stream biomonitoring program for the Inuvik to Tu...


Terrain factors influencing the water quality of peatland streams along the Inuvik-to-Tuktoyaktuk Highway
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2022
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5295. The objective of this project is to examine the oxygen (d18O) and hydrogen (d2H) isotopic compositions of stream water and precipitation for 11 peatland stream watersheds along the Inuvik-to-Tuktoyaktuk Highway (ITH). This information will be used to understand the hydrology of the contributing watershed. In particula...


Permafrost slumping and land-water connections on the Peel Plateau
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2024 2023 2022 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5249. The objective of this research is to understand how permafrost slumping increases the mobilization of carbon, nutrients, and toxins (mercury) from land to water, and the effects of this transport on stream ecosystems and the global carbon cycle. Over the next several years, the research team plan to measure stream che...
