Assessing One Health competencies and learning outcomes: focus groups of climate change professionals
Principal Investigator: Parmley, Jane
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5194. The objective of this work is to identify the competencies (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) needed for success in climate change-related employment positions, and in turning climate change mitigation and adaptation knowledge into action. This study is needed to better prepare future One Health professionals to tackl...


UndercoverEisAgenten
Principal Investigator: Langer, Moritz
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5218. The aim of the citizen science project UndercoverEisAgenten is to study permafrost changes in the Arctic to raise awareness of these environmental changes and strengthen the data basis for science. Students from Moose Kerr School in Aklavik will design their own permafrost change related research questions and work wi...


Potential Impacts of Climate Change on the levels of Poly- and Perfluoroalkyls in Country Foods and Implications for Human Health Risk
Principal Investigator: Wallace, Elizabeth
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5313. The objectives of this study are to estimate potential future Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) concentrations in marine country foods under two climate change scenarios, and to determine dietary exposure estimates and hazard indices based on potential future concentrations and dietary intake data. The longer-term obje...


Plant diversification facilitated by climate change: evolution of ancient lycopods connected with arctic, post glaciated and boreal regions
Principal Investigator: Ekrt, Libor
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5349. The purpose of the project is to study plants surviving in glaciated areas on the example of the most primitive vascular plants: the model genus Huperzia (Lycopodiophyta). The research team will study the distribution of ancestral and derived types of plants in arctic, boreal and alpine zones in context of climate cha...


Measuring and simulating permafrost thaw
Principal Investigator: Gruber, Stephan
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5114. The objectives of this project are to understand: 1) how permafrost differs in temperature and chemical/physical characteristics from place to place; 2) how these different types of permafrost react to change (climate/disturbance); and, 3) which future changes in permafrost are likely and which are less likely based o...


Drivers and constraints of ecological change in the western Arctic
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021 2019 2018 2017
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5277. The objectives of this research are: 1) Use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, UAVs, etc.) to document regional landscape change (tundra fire, infrastructure, saline flooding, slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.); and 2) Use field sampling and monitoring to determi...


Quantifying carbon fluxes and budgets of boreal forest-tundra landscapes under the influence of rapidly changing permafrost regimes
Principal Investigator: Sonnentag, Oliver
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5220. The project of the present application is the continuation of year-round eddy covariance measurements of carbon, water and energy fluxes at Trail Valley Creek and Havikpak Creek, established in 2013. The key methodology is tower-mounted micrometeorological measurements around the eddy covariance technique using an ...


Permafrost and climate change, western Arctic Canada
Principal Investigator: Burn, Chris R
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5214. The objective is to continue monitoring change in ground temperatures, seasonal thaw depth (active layer), subsidence of the ground, change in vegetation, and thawing of ice wedges. The research team compare these data with the results of computer forecasts of how things may change with climate warming. The team hope ...


The annual scientific Arctic expedition onboard the Canadian research icebreaker CCGS Amundsen
Principal Investigator: Merzouk, Anissa
Licensed Year(s): 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4997. The aim of the research programs supported by the Amundsen in 2021 is to study on a long-term basis how climate induced changes are impacting the marine ecosystem, carbon cycle, contaminant transport, biogeochemical fluxes, and exchange processes across the ocean-sea ice-atmosphere interface in the Canadian Arctic Oce...


Impact of climate change on catchment biogeochemistry in plains and shield regions
Principal Investigator: Olefeldt, David
Licensed Year(s): 2021 2019 2018
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4734. The objective of this research is to identify impacts of climate change and permafrost thaw on pond methane emissions, and on water chemistry in streams that drain peatland-rich catchments. Impacts on methane emissions will be assessed. Specific objectives are: 1) to characterize the trends and variability in magn...
