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.

Impacts of permafrost thaw on land cover and downstream water quality
Principal Investigator: Baltzer, Jennifer L
Licensed Year(s): 2023
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...

Biogeochemistry of Lakes in the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Lesack, Lance
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5554. The objectives of this project are to improve the understanding of methane cycling in Mackenzie Delta lakes and how it is affected by the changing water levels and to decipher the impact of water level changes on the ability of the Mackenzie Delta to affect riverine carbon and nutrient flow to the ocean. Improve un...

Terrain factors influencing the water quality of peatland streams along the Inuvik-to-Tuktoyaktuk Highway
Principal Investigator: Hille, Erika C
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5295. The objective of this project is to examine the oxygen (d18O) and hydrogen (d2H) isotopic compositions of stream water and precipitation for 11 peatland stream watersheds along the Inuvik-to-Tuktoyaktuk Highway (ITH). This information will be used to understand the hydrology of the contributing watershed. In particula...
