Effects of permafrost thaw and vegetation shifts on carbon and mercury cycling
Principal Investigator: Wild, Birgit
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5564. The main goal of the project is to understand how gradients in tundra vegetation and permafrost thaw affect soil carbon and mercury cycling. This will allow the research team to assess how permafrost thaw and changes in vegetation in a warmer climate could alter future carbon dioxide fluxes and impact mercury cycling ...


Permafrost thaw slumps, sediment dynamics and ecosystem health of upland tundra lakes within the western Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Droppo, Ian
Licensed Year(s): 2020
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4759. The overall objective of this research is to assess the permafrost thaw slump erosion and transport of its sediment by rainfall/runoff to depositional zones within Arctic tundra lakes. To achieve this, we will link a rainfall simulator with an annular flume (to simulate lake currents) located in the Hydro-ecology Moni...
