Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5349.
The purpose of the project is to study plants surviving in glaciated areas on the example of the most primitive vascular plants: the model genus Huperzia (Lycopodiophyta). The research team will study the distribution of ancestral and derived types of plants in arctic, boreal and alpine zones in context of climate cha...

2001 Summary:
Two individuals from each of the communities of Inuvik, Aklavik, Tsiigehtchic, Fort McPherson, and Tuktoyaktuk will be interviewed about their local knowledge of tundra swan biology. Information collected will educate the researcher about local tundra swan ecology and may help generate questions that are important to communities. Interview methods will follow those used by the Arctic Borderlands E...

Summary:
The experiment will determine the interacting effects of fire severity, soil moisture and air temperature treatments on the emergence, winter survival and initial growth of treeline and near treeline tree species. The availability and viability of tree seed for successful regeneration of the treeline and near-treeline tree species will also be determined....

19911990 Summary:
To determine the maximum size of treeline tree species in a burned and unburned valley in the Caribou Hills, the mass of standing trees on different slopes and aspects will be estimated and related to the energy input. In 1992 the plots prepared in 1990 and planted and seeded in 1991, will be revisited and measurement of growth for the second growing season will be taken....
