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...

Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5561.
Through ERT and PS methods, the extent and depth will be mapped to the top of ice-bearing permafrost (IBP) offshore of Tuktoyaktuk Island. On land, ERT surveys will also reveal information on permafrost characteristics like ice content, but offshore, tools can only reliably map the thickness of the unfrozen body (tali...

Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5568.
The primary objective of this project is to link long-term records of ground temperature and permafrost conditions with changes in landcover and water quality of adjacent ponds and lakes. In other words, how thawing permafrost alters terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem properties.
Along the Mackenzie Valley corridor...

2022 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5420.
The objectives of this study are to: 1) evaluate the geologic setting including geochemistry, and dating of sediments to establish a regional history of the area; 2) investigate the geologic setting of multiple buried, massive ice bodies; and 3) develop a geologic and hazards map along the Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk Highwa...

2021 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5114.
The objectives of this project are to understand: 1) how permafrost differs in temperature and chemical/physical characteristics from place to place; 2) how these different types of permafrost react to change (climate/disturbance); and, 3) which future changes in permafrost are likely and which are less likely based o...
