Joint Ocean-Ice Study (JOIS)
Principal Investigator: Williams, Bill
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5939. Research questions seek to understand the impacts of global change on the physical and geochemical environment of the Beaufort Gyre (BG) Region in the Canada Basin of the Arctic Ocean and the corresponding biological response. We thus collect data annually so that we can link decadal-scale perturbations in the Arctic...


Recent, rapid environmental change in the western Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Thienpont, Joshua
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5573. To understand how landscape changes caused by climate warming are impacting aquatic ecosystems, particularly lakes and streams. These disturbances focus primarily on permafrost thaw, in the form of thaw slumps and landslides. The understanding derived will allow better understanding of how water quality and aquatic ha...


Nitrogen sources for Arctic freshwaters (NitroFresh)
Principal Investigator: Pastor, Ada
Licensed Year(s): 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5034. The main aim of Nitrofresh is to assess the nitrogen (N) sources for streams and the linkages between terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems across different regions with continuous permafrost in High Arctic. In particular, the research team have three objectives: 1) to quantify and characterize N pools along the ripar...


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...


Assessing the impact of small, Canadian Arctic river flows to the freshwater budget of the Canadian Archipelago
Principal Investigator: Alkire, Matthew B
Licensed Year(s): 2016 2015 2014
Summary: There are two primary goals of this project: 1) to determine whether relatively small Canadian Arctic rivers significantly contribute to the total volume of freshwater that drains through Davis Strait; and, 2) to determine if they are chemically distinct from larger North American rivers such as the Mackenzie and Yukon Rivers. To achieve these goals the research team propose to collect water sampl...


Tundra Northwest 1999
Principal Investigator: Karlqvist, Anders
Licensed Year(s): 1999
Summary: The overall goal of the expedition Tundra Northwest 1999 is to study geographic variation of terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems of the tundra. By using the CCG icebreaker Louis St. Laurent for transport and as a scientific platform the the expedition route will include a longitudinal gradient from Baffin Island to the northern coast of Alaska and a latitudinal gradient through the Canadian Arc...


Licence #1772
Principal Investigator: Sekerak, Aaron D.
Licensed Year(s): 1974
Summary: Study of Fresh water resources on Boothia Peninsula and the Arctic Islands, on behalf of Polar Gas Project....
