Capitalizing on long-term experimental manipulations to understand and predict arctic terrestrial ecosystem responses to climate warming
Principal Investigator: Grogan, Paul
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022 2021 2019
Summary: The objectives of this research project are: 1) to determine the biogeochemical and ecological significance of our discovery that mesic tundra plant growth can be co-limited by nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P); 2) to predict the likely impacts of not just climate change, but also declining caribou and other mammalian herbivory, on tundra deciduous and evergreen shrub abundances; and, 3) to evaluate...

Ekati Diamond Mine
Principal Investigator: Pacholski, Laura J
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5107. The main objectives of the field work for 2022 will be to determine if the Ekati Diamond Mine is having an effect on the surrounding aquatic environment, wildlife, and air quality, and to provide baseline data for areas where mine development may occur in the future. In winter, water samples will be collected unde...

NWT Diamonds Project - Revegetation Research
Principal Investigator: Witteman, John
Licensed Year(s): 1996 1995
Summary: As part of overall reclamation goals of BHP, the 1996 season will focus on three components. Vegetation response will be assessed in August using the point-frame method. Within the legume, indigenous seed and shrub cutting plots, plant density will be recorded. Soil samples in replicates of three will be collected from each treatment to analyze physical and chemical characteristics. Secondly, ...

Forest Fire Research
Principal Investigator: Maffey, Murray
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: The researchers will participate in and assist with fire behavior and fuel type data collection on the Little Rat Lake prescribed burn. The will resurvey the experimental burn plots and carry out a regeneration survey 10 years after the experimental burns at Porter Lake. Initial attack crew leaders in the Fort Simpson district will be interviewed to obtain detailed information about the effectiven...

Licence #4095
Principal Investigator: Kershaw, G. Peter
Licensed Year(s): 1984
Summary: Dempster Highway disturbance studies determine the state of natural recovery on human disturbances of various ages; (this includes the botanical and wildlife habitat characteristics). Also, to continue monitoring of the species and population characterisics of small mammals in 12 tundra habitats and continue monitoring of small mammal habitat selection for the 4th year of the study....
