Assessment of the Western Arctic Boundary Current
Principal Investigator: Pickart, Robert S.
Licensed Year(s): 2020
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4747. The main objective is to characterize the western Arctic Boundary current, which flows at the edge of the shelf, in order to understand its role in dictating shelf-basin exchange of water and materials and how it impacts the ecosystem of the region, including the occurrence of marine mammals. This project is a coll...


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...

The Impacts of Muskoxen on a Hygric Sedge Meadow Plant Community, Northern Banks Island, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Romo, J.T.
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: The project examines the effects of a high-density muskoxen populations on a sedge meadow plant community. Two fences exist at the study site to exclude muskoxen and thus provide an ungrazed area used for comparison with the grazed area. Plant species abundance, plant height, grazing use of plant species and weight of plants are some of the data that will be compared among grazed and ungrazed are...
