Effects of permafrost thaw and vegetation shifts on carbon and mercury cycling
Principal Investigator: Wild, Birgit
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5564. The main goal of the project is to understand how gradients in tundra vegetation and permafrost thaw affect soil carbon and mercury cycling. This will allow the research team to assess how permafrost thaw and changes in vegetation in a warmer climate could alter future carbon dioxide fluxes and impact mercury cycling ...


Development and Testing of Climate Change Monitoring Equipment in the Arctic
Principal Investigator: Layden, Ronald E.
Licensed Year(s): 2016
Summary: Data analysis will help the company to optimize the firmware, battery requirements and testing regimes needed and finalize products that can then be used in any type of remote and cold locations for extended periods with little or no equipment monitoring. Several eosFD devices (carbon dioxide monitoring equipment) will be tested to determine usability requirements and to select a winter test ...


Biogeochemistry of Lakes in the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Lesack, Lance
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016 2015 2014 2010 2009 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993
Summary: 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...


Towards Long-term Monitoring of the CO2 System in Arctic Rivers
Principal Investigator: Wang, Zhaohui 'Aleck'
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2011 2010
Summary: The objective of this research project is to make time-series measurements of the CO2 system in the Mackenzie River, near Inuvik, Northwest Territories. Monthly water sampling is taking place at the Mackenzie River near Inuvik by technicians from the Aurora Research Institute. Data will be shared with local communities for education purposes as well as annual reports and publications made avail...
