Navigating the Arctic Firescape: Indigenous Perspectives on Climate Variations and Land Use Practices in Northern Canada
Principal Investigator: Sonnentag, Oliver
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5958. The main objective of this project is to understand the perceptions of Indigenous community members, from the ISR and/or the GSA, of how wildfires have modified, and might modify, the landscape and their relationship with it. The Principle Investigator will conduct a dozen semi-structured interviews with community...


To what extent will nitrogen limit Canadian boreal forest growth and the terrestrial carbon sink under global change?
Principal Investigator: Kou-Giesbrecht, Sian
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5951. The overarching objective of this research is to understand the extent to which nutrients will limit forest growth and terrestrial carbon sequestration in Canadian boreal forests and to improve how this is represented in climate change models. These climate change models can then be used to understand the impacts of ...


Quantification of carbon fluxes and ecosystem characteristics in permafrost regions with a special focus on the impact of degradation processes
Principal Investigator: Goeckede, Mathias
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5971. As part of the ERC-synergy project Q-Arctic, we plan to investigate biogeochemical and biogeophysical processes along transects following landscape gradients, and study carbon cycle processes within small to medium-sized lakes including their watersheds. Gradients on land include natural variability within heterogen...


Canada Learning Loss Report
Principal Investigator: Vaillancourt, Tracy
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5912. We have formed a partnership between the Royal Society of Canada and the Canadian Commission of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and created a coalition of experts across Canada to produce a comprehensive data-informed pan-Canadian policy report on pandemic learning loss that is in...


Sulfur in the permafrost environment
Principal Investigator: Murton, Julian B
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5887. The purpose of the fieldwork is to determine the sulfur isotope signature of environmental conditions (superficial deposits, soil, water, vegetation) associated with relatively stable permafrost conditions compared to permafrost thaw conditions Samples of soil (100-200 g), vegetation (<500 g), water (<1 L) and ice...


NASA Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) Airborne Flights 2023
Principal Investigator: Miller, Charles E
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5949. The NASA Dynamic Aviation King Air B-200 aircraft with a hyperspectral (AVIRIS-III) instrument will re-fly lines in the ABoVE study area. The flight teams will be based out of the Yellowknife airfield. The aircraft flies at an altitude between 5 – 15 km. We hope to fly the AVIRIS-III instrument between July 1 – Augus...


Arctic Expedition
Principal Investigator: Cherrak, Marion
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5937. Arctic Change: The project supervised by UNIGE, Geneva University and conducted onboard by Marion Cherrak, Science Lead at Pacifique, will continuously monitor environmental data: greenhouse gasses (carbon dioxide and methane) and standard oceanographic parameters in surface water/water column and the polar atmosphe...


The water quality response of Arctic rivers to regional variability in landscape and permafrost conditions
Principal Investigator: Hille, Erika C
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5596. The objectives of this study are to conduct spatially detailed surveys of water quality and stream discharge along the Miner River, in order to examine how water quality responds to organic-rich peatland tributary streams and retrogressive thaw slumping; and, to examine the seasonal water quality of Caribou Creek and...


Facilitating Action through Community-Based Monitoring and Knowledge: A Case Study of Beluga Monitoring in the Arctic
Principal Investigator: Parlee, Brenda L
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5850. The aim of this collaborative research is to support Inuvialuit leaders seeking to influence national and international policy decisions about marine and related resources and their socio-cultural value to the Inuvialuit people. Phase 1. Research Set Up (April-May 2024) During this phase, the research team wil...


Maintaining permafrost ecosystem data series at Trail Valley Creek
Principal Investigator: Boike, Julia
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5916. The objectives for this expedition are to collect data from the soil moisture and temperature sensors that were installed during the expedition in 2022 and to install additional sensors near the existing ones. Additionally, the plan is to maintain and upgrade existing, long-term observations at the Trail Valley Creek...
