Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6013.
The overall goal of this project is to provide a comprehensive evaluation of carbon capture capacity of the northern tree line migration into the northern regions of Canada. Specifically, the research group's objective is to identify if soil and plant root associated microbial communities inhabiting areas very close ...

2023 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5924.
The ultimate aim of this research is to transform understanding of how greenhouse gas emissions from rivers will impact the future trajectory of atmospheric CO2 and CH4 concentrations. Two key research objectives have been identified to address major research gaps in this carbon flux:
Objective 1: Conduct river-bo...

Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5822.
The objectives of this project are:
(1) To develop, deploy, and refine low-cost sensors to measure green house gas (GHG) concentrations.
(2) To identify GHG concentration patterns within snowpacks at a landscape scale (1 to 10 square km).
(3) To optimise winter carbon cycling in climate models, and scale up simula...

Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5797.
The goals of this multi-year-long project are to assess greenhouse gas (methane and carbon dioxide) release from warming permafrost and tundra lakes in the ISR and to study associated carbon dynamics and microbiological processes, including the release of mercury to the environment.
The first year of field activit...

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 objectives of this research project are to:
1. map and assess changes in the distribution and composition of forest and peatland ecosystems due to climate changes;
2. estimate carbon storage (and variation) in boreal to arctic ecoregions of the Mackenzie valley; and
3. assess interannual and seasonal variations and key processes controlling carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) dynamics.

Summary:
The project is being conducted by Lutra Associates Ltd. for the Arctic Energy Alliance. To provide a proper context for taking action on greenhouse gas emissions, the AEA wishes to ascertain information on the knowledge and attitudes amount youth in grades 5-12 about global warming and climate change. The Arctic Energy Alliance's survey of youth is designed to answer questions on climate change is...
