Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: The objective of this research is to develop, using an ecology based approach, scientifically rigorous guidelines for impact assessment and monitoring of caribou for the Mackenzie Valley Environmental Impact Review Board and Nunavut Impact Review Board (the Boards). This is being done so that the information collected by proponents allows for more reliable differentiation between natural varia...

Principal Investigator: Van Humbeck, Joe
Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: The objective of the 2007 portion of the project is to monitor control sites and treatment sites, and collect information on the habitat utilization. Data collected will be used to evaluate the continued success and effectiveness of the habitat construction and enhancement. Field crews will fly to Matthews Lake, landing either on the runway or the lake. The Treeline Lodge, where the research te...

Summary: Caribou populations fluctuate over long time spans, however, long-term records of population cycles are scarce. The population dynamics of the Bathurst caribou herd across the Northwest Territories will be reconstructed using two proxy indicators of cli...

Principal Investigator: Clark, Karin
Licensed Year(s): 2003
Summary: The objectives of the research are to get a better understanding of how caribou foraged plant species might be responding to climate. This information may be used to make predictions of how plants might adapt to a warmer climate and in turn how this mig...

Principal Investigator: Waterway, Marcia J.
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and her team will sample approximately twenty different species of sedges in a range of wetlands between Edmonton and Yellowknife. They will find out the range of conditions in which each species grows best and will determine whether broad tolerance results from inherited variability or from the ability of individuals of each species to tolerate different conditions....
