NASA Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) Airborne Flights 2023
Principal Investigator: Miller, Charles E
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5601. From 2017 – 2022, ABoVE airborne teams collected data across a wide variety of ecosystems in both the US and Canada. Depending on available funds, the team may re-fly one of the sensors to collect hyperspectral data at several locations in 2023. For 2023, the NASA Dynamic Aviation King Air B-200 aircraft with a h...


Documenting Gwich’in and Inuvialuit Dolly Varden management history and contemporary fisheries objectives through Traditional Knowledge
Principal Investigator: Poorten, Brett van
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5467. Objectives: To improve sustainability of Dolly Varden fisheries from the perspective of the Gwich’in and Inuvialuit communities that rely on them. Within that, specific Project Objectives include: 1) Document Indigenous Knowledge of population trends, environmental change, and cumulative impacts for Dolly Varden an...


Soundscape ecology to assess environmental controls on wildlife
Principal Investigator: Boelman, Natalie
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5555. Our objective is to install 3 Automated Recording Units (ARUs) that will collect daily audio recordings that will allow us to understand how variation in environmental conditions affect habitat use by birds. To begin, we will temporarily attach 3 ARUs onto 3 trees (using bungee cord or ratchet straps). All birds th...


Rapid Creek Formation
Principal Investigator: Gadd, Michael
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5577. The objective of this project is to better understand the physical, chemical, and biological controls of the Rapid Creek Formation by collecting and analyzing samples (through fieldwork) and developing a new sequence stratigraphic framework for the purpose of uncovering its potential and enabling the identification of...


Using Inuvialuit and Gwich'in observations to monitor environmental change in the Beaufort Delta Region
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4753. The core objective of this research is to work with Inuvialuit and Gwich’in experts to document and share local observations of environmental conditions. Over time this will build a record of observations, against which future changes can be compared. To document local observations this research will employ methods in...


Food Security, Social and Environmental Justice and Resilience in the Western Canadian Arctic, using Participatory Video Method
Principal Investigator: Gauthier, Maeva
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2020 2019 2018
Summary: The goal is to document resilience and analyse perceptions related to food security and environmental change working with a group of youth in Tuktoyaktuk. The Principal Investigator (PI) will ask: 1) What are the perceptions from the community about notable environmental change (such as presence of plastics/microplastics in their environment and shoreline erosion) and how do they see this affect...


Examining the impacts of climate and environmental change on aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems of the Mackenzie region, NWT
Principal Investigator: Pisaric, Michael FJ
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009
Summary: This research will continue the long term objective of documenting and understanding the impacts of recent climate change on northern terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The short term objectives of my research for 2018 are: 1) to investigate the impacts of permafrost degradation and subsequent thaw slumping on freshwater ecosystems; 2) to examine the limnological implications of drained lakes on ...


Recent changes in carbon source-sink relationships and greenhouse gas emissions in forest and peatland ecosystems along the Mackenzie Valley region of Canada
Principal Investigator: Bhatti, Jagtar
Licensed Year(s): 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007
Summary: The objectives of this research project are to: 1. map and assess changes in the distribution and composition of forest and peatland ecosystems due to climate changes; 2. estimate carbon storage (and variation) in boreal to arctic ecoregions of the Mackenzie valley; and 3. assess interannual and seasonal variations and key processes controlling carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) dynamics. ...
