Sulfur in the permafrost environment
Principal Investigator: Murton, Julian B
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5887. The purpose of the fieldwork is to determine the sulfur isotope signature of environmental conditions (superficial deposits, soil, water, vegetation) associated with relatively stable permafrost conditions compared to permafrost thaw conditions Samples of soil (100-200 g), vegetation (<500 g), water (<1 L) and ice...


Joint Ocean-Ice Study (JOIS)
Principal Investigator: Williams, Bill
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5939. Research questions seek to understand the impacts of global change on the physical and geochemical environment of the Beaufort Gyre (BG) Region in the Canada Basin of the Arctic Ocean and the corresponding biological response. We thus collect data annually so that we can link decadal-scale perturbations in the Arctic...


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. 5949. The NASA Dynamic Aviation King Air B-200 aircraft with a hyperspectral (AVIRIS-III) instrument will re-fly lines in the ABoVE study area. The flight teams will be based out of the Yellowknife airfield. The aircraft flies at an altitude between 5 – 15 km. We hope to fly the AVIRIS-III instrument between July 1 – Augus...


Arctic Expedition
Principal Investigator: Cherrak, Marion
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5937. Arctic Change: The project supervised by UNIGE, Geneva University and conducted onboard by Marion Cherrak, Science Lead at Pacifique, will continuously monitor environmental data: greenhouse gasses (carbon dioxide and methane) and standard oceanographic parameters in surface water/water column and the polar atmosphe...


The water quality response of Arctic rivers to regional variability in landscape and permafrost conditions
Principal Investigator: Hille, Erika C
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5596. The objectives of this study are to conduct spatially detailed surveys of water quality and stream discharge along the Miner River, in order to examine how water quality responds to organic-rich peatland tributary streams and retrogressive thaw slumping; and, to examine the seasonal water quality of Caribou Creek and...


Facilitating Action through Community-Based Monitoring and Knowledge: A Case Study of Beluga Monitoring in the Arctic
Principal Investigator: Parlee, Brenda L
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5850. The aim of this collaborative research is to support Inuvialuit leaders seeking to influence national and international policy decisions about marine and related resources and their socio-cultural value to the Inuvialuit people. Phase 1. Research Set Up (April-May 2024) During this phase, the research team wil...


Permafrost slumping and land-water connections on the Peel Plateau
Principal Investigator: Tank, Suzanne E
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5953. The objective of this research is to understand how permafrost slumping increases the mobilization of carbon, nutrients, and toxins (mercury) from land to water, and the effects of this transport on stream ecosystems and the global carbon cycle. Over the next several years, the plan is to measure stream chemistry at ...


Maintaining permafrost ecosystem data series at Trail Valley Creek
Principal Investigator: Boike, Julia
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5916. The objectives for this expedition are to collect data from the soil moisture and temperature sensors that were installed during the expedition in 2022 and to install additional sensors near the existing ones. Additionally, the plan is to maintain and upgrade existing, long-term observations at the Trail Valley Creek...


Characterizing recent wildfires in the Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Ruppel, Meri
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5869. The main objective of this study is to reveal patterns of northern wildfires. Vertical profiles of burned peat (and other organic matter) layers will be investigated, which produce pioneering results on the vertical pattern of peat fires, and critical information on the burn depth and age of burnt peat (modern vs. fo...


Monitoring forest structure and treeline change drivers (5263)
Principal Investigator: Kruse, Stefan
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5947. The aim is to monitor vegetation changes in current climate warming for simulating past and future dynamics with an individual-based spatially explicit model (LAVESI). Therefore, our intentions are: 1. assessing stand inventories at diverse bioclimatic and environmental settings by a space-for-time approach 2. gat...
