Indigenous Knowledge of Berries in the Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Singer, Claire L
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5495. The goal of this project is to complete a territory-wide Indigenous knowledge study to determine what we know about berries, describe any changes that are being seen in berries, identify potential causes of these changes, and outline what further information needs to be collected. The completion of this work will resu...


Freshwater biodiversity spanning contaminant gradient from historical gold mines in Yellowknife NWT region
Principal Investigator: Derry, Alison
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5253. The long-term project objective is to determine ecological and evolutionary processes, and interactions between ecology and evolution (eco-evolutionary interactions), that are potentially limiting and/or facilitating the biological recovery of mining-impacted lakes around Yellowknife, NWT. The objective in the first y...


Carbon Cycling Linkages of Permafrost Systems [CYCLOPS]
Principal Investigator: Williams, Mathew
Licensed Year(s): 2014 2013 2012
Summary: The aim of the proposed project is to develop, parameterize and evaluate a detailed process-based model of vegetation soil- permafrost interactions using data collected through directed field campaigns in the discontinuous and sporadic permafrost zones of western Canada. The research team will (i) elucidate the role of plant biodiversity in controlling permafrost status in contrasting ecosystems w...


Ecological Structure of Northern Arthropods: Adaptation to a Changing Environment
Principal Investigator: Buddle, Chris
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2011
Summary: The objectives of this research project are: (1) To test how and to what degree the structure of arthropod communities changes between the northern boreal (Norman Wells and Yellowknife, NT), sub arctic (Ogilvie Mountains, YT, and Kugluktuk, NU), and high arctic (Aulavik National Park, NT, and Cambridge Bay, NU) zones. This will provide a contemporary geographic profile of species and group distri...


A phylogenetic and phylogeographic study of predaceous diving beetles in the Nearctic with a focus on the tribe Agabini (Coleoptera, Dytiscidae, Colymbetinae).
Principal Investigator: Venables, Chandra
Licensed Year(s): 2011
Summary: The objectives of this research project are to: 1) establish evolutionary relationships of diving beetles in the Nearctic, in addition to identifying colonization routes for exemplars in the tribe Agabini; 2) assess genetic diversity of target species and among-population genetic mixing, and compare these data to historical data (where possible) with an aim at assessing latitudinal and historica...
