Studies of greenhouse gas release and environmental processes associated with thawing permafrost in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region
Principal Investigator: Morse, Peter D
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6143. The goals of this multi-year-long project are to assess greenhouse gas (methane and carbon dioxide) release from warming permafrost and tundra lakes in the ISR and to study associated carbon dynamics and microbiological processes, including the release of mercury to the environment. The second year (2025) of field...


Using Inuvialuit and Gwich'in observations to monitor environmental change in the Beaufort Delta Region
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6148. The core objective of this research is to work with Inuvialuit and Gwich’in experts to document local observations of environmental conditions. Specifically, we will use semi-structured interviews and, where possible, land-based observation to document environmental conditions with photographs and videos georeference...


Mapping, monitoring and modelling permafrost change in the NWT
Principal Investigator: Kokelj, Steve V
Licensed Year(s): 2025 2024 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6072. The primary objectives of this research are 1) to develop and test new methods of characterizing permafrost and monitoring permafrost landscape change with a focus on the Beaufort Delta, central Mackenzie Valley and North Slave regions; 2) mapping sensitive permafrost terrain across NWT by integrating expert assessm...


The Evolution of Permafrost Conditions in Disturbed Terrain
Principal Investigator: Ensom, Timothy P
Licensed Year(s): 2025 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6123. The response of permafrost to disturbance can be better understood through long-term monitoring at sites of interest. The objectives of this research application are to (1) help connect and engage local partners and interested stakeholders in the monitoring of drilling waste sumps, aggregate quarries, and trails; and...


To what extent will nitrogen limit Canadian boreal forest growth and the terrestrial carbon sink under global change?
Principal Investigator: Kou-Giesbrecht, Sian
Licensed Year(s): 2025 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6084. The overarching objective of this research is to understand the extent to which nutrients will limit forest growth and terrestrial carbon sequestration in Canadian boreal forests and to improve how this is represented in climate change models. These climate change models can then be used to understand the impacts of ...


Fluxes from Land to Ocean: How Coastal Habitats in the Arctic Respond (FLO CHAR)
Principal Investigator: Juhls, Bennet
Licensed Year(s): 2025 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6109. The overall objective of this project is to determine the impact of changing land-ocean matter fluxes and coastal subsea permafrost on nearshore ecosystems and biodiversity in the Beaufort Sea. To reveal the trajectory of coastal habitats, it is critical to (1) determine how fluvial and coastal fluxes from the land...


Maintaining permafrost ecosystem data series at Trail Valley Creek
Principal Investigator: Boike, Julia
Licensed Year(s): 2025 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6102. The objectives for this expedition are to collect data from the soil moisture and temperature sensors that we installed during the expedition in 2022 and to install additional sensors near the existing ones. Additionally, we plan to maintain and upgrade existing, long-term observations at the Trail Valley Creek site....


Quantification of carbon fluxes and ecosystem characteristics in permafrost regions with a special focus on the impact of degradation processes
Principal Investigator: Goeckede, Mathias
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5971. As part of the ERC-synergy project Q-Arctic, we plan to investigate biogeochemical and biogeophysical processes along transects following landscape gradients, and study carbon cycle processes within small to medium-sized lakes including their watersheds. Gradients on land include natural variability within heterogen...


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...


Landscape Change in the Western Arctic
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5908. 1) Use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, and Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS)) to document regional landscape change (tundra fire, infrastructure, saline flooding, slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.). 2) Use field sampling and monitoring to determine the c...
