Long-term hydrological dynamics of Canada’s largest watershed: Climate controls on water quantity of the Mackenzie River Basin
Principal Investigator: Galloway, Jennifer
Licensed Year(s): 2020
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4705. The Mackenzie River Basin (MRB) is one of the largest cold-water, intact boreal ecosystems in the world and has unique Earth-system’s processes associated with sea ice formation, global circulation of deep ocean currents, carbon storage, and biogeochemical cycling. This unique global resource is also critical for supp...


Pealand-Permafrost Mapping and Environmental Implications.
Principal Investigator: Kettles, Inez
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researcher will map the configuration of peat deposits and permafrost within them using geophysical surveys (ground penetrating radar and EM-31). This will involve setting out a traverse line on foot using measuring tape and flagging tape, taking measurements along the traverse line with hand-held equipment and measuring the depth of peat using a probe. The researcher will drive or fly out ...


Climate Change and Postglacial Paleoenvironmental History of Peatlands in the Mackenzie Delta Area and Anthropogenic Contaminant Residues in Active Peat Bogs in the Yukon and Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Vardy, Sheila
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: This research is part of a Canadian-Russian collaborative, interdisciplinary project aimed at the history of treeline fluctuations in circumboreal regions. We will also investigate the feasibility of using peat as a temporal record of pesticide residues. It will also investigate methods utilized in temperate peat studies and the applicability of these methods in northern Canada....
