Landscape Change in the Western Arctic
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5594. The main goal is to use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, and Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS)) to document regional landscape change (tundra fire, infrastructure, saline flooding, slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.). 2) Use field sampling and monitoring t...

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. 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...

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...

How will fish communities in Gwich’in and Inuvialuit lakes respond to climate change?
Principal Investigator: Gray, Derek K
Licensed Year(s): 2019 2018 2017
Summary: The purpose of this project is to obtain baseline data for fish communities in Gwich’in Settlement Area (GSA) and Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR) lakes and use these data to predict future changes in fish communities caused by climate change. Specific objectives are: 1) to develop a baseline data set for fish populations, fish habitat, water quality, and water temperature for small and m...

Predicting climate-driven changes in water quality and biological communities in Gwich'in lakes
Principal Investigator: Gray, Derek K
Licensed Year(s): 2017
Summary: Zooplankton play a key role in aquatic food webs, providing a conduit for the movement of energy between primary producers (algae) and larger organisms such as macroinvertebrates and fish. Therefore, elucidating the impact of permafrost melting on zooplankton is key to gaining a broader understanding of climate change on aquatic ecosystems in Canada’s north. Objectives of this proposed researc...
