Glacier mass balance of the Melville South Ice Cap
Principal Investigator: Burgess, David O
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022 2021 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5450. The objectives of this integrated monitoring and research project is to provide 1) science based knowledge pertaining to the patterns and rates of climate change, and 2) a quantitative basis for estimating Canada’s contributions to global sea-level rise. Glacier mass balance is defined as the difference between th...


Measuring and simulating permafrost thaw
Principal Investigator: Gruber, Stephan
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5425. The objectives of this project are to understand: 1) how permafrost differs in temperature and chemical/physical characteristics from place to place; 2) how these different types of permafrost react to change (climate/disturbance); and, 3) which future changes in permafrost are likely and which are less likely based o...


Natural Resources Canada - Canadian National Seismograph Network Operations
Principal Investigator: McKee, Lorne
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5415. The objective is to incorporate two existing seismic stations installed and currently operated by the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) into the Canadian National Seismograph Network (CNSN), where NRCan, through the Canadian Hazard Information Service (CHIS), would operate and maintain the stati...


Watershed-scale geomorphic response to climate change in the Aklavik Range, NWT
Principal Investigator: Strauss, Justin Vincent
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5411. or this latest phase of research, the research team propose to integrate field observations, geochemical techniques, and historical remote sensing analysis to quantify the rates and processes by which sediment is generated from bedrock and transported downslope via hillslope and river processes under a changing climat...


Quantification of carbon fluxes and ecosystem characteristics in permafrost regions with a special focus on the impact of degradation processes
Principal Investigator: Goeckede, Mathias
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5279. As part of the European Research Council (ERC)-synergy project Q-Arctic, the research team plan to investigate biogeochemical and biogeophysical processes along transects following landscape gradients. Such gradients include natural variability within heterogeneous permafrost landscapes (e.g. a transect from dry uploa...


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...


Development of a Biological Monitoring Program to Detect Change in Stream Health Along the Dempster–Inuvik–Tuktoyaktuk-Corridor
Principal Investigator: Musetta-Lambert, Jordan
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021 2020 2019
Summary: 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...


Measuring surface displacement using winter SAR
Principal Investigator: Rabus, Bernhard
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5270. The objective of this research is to determine the accuracy of existing physical models of the InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) dry snow signal; and, if the snow signature can be removed to enable accurate measurement of heave from winter refreezing in the active layer. There are currently three res...


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 ...


Response of Nitrogen Fixation in Lichens and Mosses to a Rapidly Changing Arctic Environment
Principal Investigator: Cassar, Nicolas
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5273. This project will collect lichen, bryophyte (moss, liverwort and hornwort) and soil samples from Dundas Peninsula and north Banks Island while traveling on the French ecotourism ship Le Commandant Charcot during a cruise through the Northwest Passage from Iceland to Alaska. The project will be carried out opportunisti...
