Assessment of the Western Arctic Boundary Current
Principal Investigator: Pickart, Robert S.
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5917. The main objective of the program is to characterize the Western Arctic Boundary Current, which flows at the edge of the continental shelf, in order to understand its role in dictating shelf-basin exchange of water and materials and how it impacts the ecosystem of the region, including the occurrence of marine mammal...


Geological Mapping of Mackenzie Delta and Richardson Mountains
Principal Investigator: Adepoju, Yaqub Olabanji
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5860. The objectives of the project and its importance are to close the knowledge gap created by age of the last field study and proprietary nature of other geological studies in the Mackenzie Delta. 1. At each field station, the team of researchers will record field observation of the physical properties of rock format...


NWT-wide Community based Water Quality Monitoring
Principal Investigator: Ross, Guylaine Danielle
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5740. To address community concerns about aquatic ecosystem health and water quality. Community members were trained to use the following equipment: • YSI sondes: sit in the water and measure basic water quality parameters every 2 hours for up to 3 months. Analysis undertaken at ECC. • Grab water samples: measure bas...


Resampling of Microalgal Communities and soil lipids in Lakes Across a 1400 km Transect from Yukon to Northwest Territories: Analysis of Changes Since 1993
Principal Investigator: Alibert, Marie
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5619. The objective of this study is to examine how climate change has impacted lake ecosystems and soils whether the changes follow a similar direction as those observed in Nunavik. Based on the results from Quebec, there should be a northward shift of different types of microalgal communities because of vegetation evolut...


Multi-methodological three-dimensional investigation of open- and closed-system Pingos in northwestern Canada (Pingo3D)
Principal Investigator: Kneisel, Christof
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5921. This project aims to investigate the three-dimensional internal structure of pingos in the Mackenzie Delta Region. The focus is on small-scale heterogeneities and a detailed delineation of ice-rich or unfrozen areas within, underneath and in close proximity to different pingos. High-resolution, 3D information gathere...


Mechanical and thermal design of embankments built on permafrost
Principal Investigator: Bilodeau, Jean-Pascal
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5914. The main objective is to develop a practical method for the mechanical and thermal design of embankments built on permafrost based on the properties of the active layer and of the permafrost, as well as the loading conditions. An existing thin section of the highway embankment built on permafrost has been instrume...


Carbon and trace metal transfers in the Mackenzie Delta region
Principal Investigator: Hilton, Robert G
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5924. The ultimate aim of this research is to transform understanding of how greenhouse gas emissions from rivers will impact the future trajectory of atmospheric CO2 and CH4 concentrations. Two key research objectives have been identified to address major research gaps in this carbon flux: Objective 1: Conduct river-bo...


Aerial Surveys of Marine Mammals in the ISR
Principal Investigator: Halliday, Bill
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5919. The main objectives for the marine mammal aerial surveys are to assess the distribution and abundance of bowhead whales, ringed seals, and bearded seals in May in the ISR and to assess the important of sea ice habitat on distribution. The marine mammal project will use aerial surveys in May in both 2024 and 2025. ...


Aerial Surveys of Eiders in the ISR
Principal Investigator: Insley, Stephen
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5918. The main objective is to assess the abundance of Pacific common eiders, in the ISR. The primary methodology is aerial surveys during the spring and summer in the eastern Beaufort Sea and the Amundsen Gulf. To accomplish the objectives, a series of aerial surveys have been designed during the spring and summer mont...
