Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5342.
The objectives of this project are to document Inuit knowledge and observations of Arctic char and Greenland cod movement ecology and health. The research team will co-produce knowledge among Inuit and scientists to better understand changes in Arctic char and Greenland cod and fisheries. The team will examine if and ...

Summary:
Zooplankton play a key role in aquatic food webs, providing a conduit for the movement of energy between primary producers (algae) and larger organisms such as macroinvertebrates and fish. Therefore, elucidating the impact of permafrost melting on zooplankton is key to gaining a broader understanding of climate change on aquatic ecosystems in Canada’s north.
Objectives of this proposed researc...

201120102009 Summary:
Climate change and industrial contaminants are two principal concerns for Arctic residents. The objectives of this research are to examine the impacts of climate and environmental change on freshwater ecosystems in the Inuvik region across a variety of spatial and temporal scales. Specifically, the team is examining the impacts of permafrost degradation and subsequent thaw slumping on freshwater e...

2005 Summary:
Climate change in the Canadian Arctic is expected to have far-reaching impacts on the hydrology and ecology of freshwater ecosystems. These systems are particularly sensitive to climate change because many cryospheric and hydrologic processes respond to relatively small in changes in climate, which in turn affect landscape biogeochemical processes and associated ecological responses. Hence, the pu...

Summary:
The overall goals of this project are to understand the present day water quality of arctic lakes and ponds and to attempt to determine if the water quality of these sites is changing as a result of, for example recent climate change or other disturbances. Collection of samples during 1999 will require roughly a one week stay at the Atmospheric Environment Service (AES) weather station at Mould Ba...
