Soil Carbon in the Mackenzie Delta Region
Principal Investigator: Phillips, Marcus R
Licensed Year(s): 2015 2014 2013
Summary: The goal of this research is to understand how landscape processes influence the quantity and quality of soil carbon in the Mackenzie Delta Region. Particular attention will be paid to the depth distribution of soil carbon and how it is affected by differences in vegetation and soil forming processes. Key environmental differences that will be examined include forest vs. tundra and delta vs. uplan...


Environmental Soil Chemistry at Abandoned Drilling Mud-Sumps in the Kendall Island Bird Sanctuary, Mackenzie Delta Region
Principal Investigator: Biggar, Kevin
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005
Summary: Since the 1970s, the oil and gas industry has drilled at least nineteen exploratory wells in the Kendall Island Bird Sanctuary. Observations at associated drilling mud-sumps have been made; however, there remains a paucity of field data describing site conditions. It is also appreciated that construction of the proposed Mackenzie Valley pipeline will stimulate the development of Niglintgak and Tag...


Vegetation Responses to the Acidic Sulfur fumes at the Smoking Hills, Cape Bathurst.
Principal Investigator: Hutchinson, Tom
Licensed Year(s): 1999
Summary: The purpose of this study is to re-measure the occurrences of vegetation, identifying all the different species and measuring them quantitatively in places that were measured 13 years ago. The focus this time will be on the ability of the tundra ecosystem to recover when a strong chemical stress ceases. The team will be flown in early August from Inuvik to the old DEW Line landing strip at Mallo...


Species Composition Changes Along a Gradient From Subarctic Forest to Tundra
Principal Investigator: Henry, Gregory
Licensed Year(s): 1995 1994 1993 1991
Summary: Using the latitudinal treeline, the Researchers will examine plant communities in forest, treeline and tundra communities. They will determine locations for permanent plots to monitor long-term changes in vegetation as a response to predicted global warming....
