Effects of snowpack temporal and physical properties affect wintertime carbon fluxes in Arctic landscapes
Principal Investigator: Rutter, Nick
Licensed Year(s): 2024
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...


Environment Adaptation in Arctic Aquatic Organisms
Principal Investigator: Ballantyne, James
Licensed Year(s): 2000
Summary: This project will examine the adaptation of freshwater fish to low temperatures. The data to be collected includes blood and tissue samples from fish. These samples will be analyzed for enzymes, fats and proteins. These results will be compared to samples taken from other locations (e.g. Nunavut, southern waters). This work will provide important information relating the sensitivity of Arctic ...


Distribution of Dark-Celled Fungal Root Endophytes Along an Arctic to Boreal Latitudinal Gradient
Principal Investigator: Piercey, Melissa
Licensed Year(s): 2000
Summary: Roots of plants inhabiting cold-stressed environments are often colonized by vegetatively reproducing fungi. The researcher will examine the genetic variation within and among populations of Phialocephala fortinii P. along a latitudinal gradient encompassing the boreal, subarctic and arctic zones in Northern Canada. The researcher will travel from Yellowknife to 3 study sites surrounding Great ...
