Tundra-climate interaction study
Principal Investigator: Humphreys, Elyn
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6094. The long-term research objective of this project is to improve our understanding of the carbon, water and energy exchange between tundra and the atmosphere. Over the next five years, we plan to continue monitoring these exchanges between Tundra Shield ecosystems and the atmosphere. This long-term data will be analyze...


Future of Tundra-Atmopshere Climate Interactions
Principal Investigator: Lafleur, Peter M
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2021 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4717. The overall goal of this project is to increase knowledge of how tundra environments interact with the atmosphere and predict how changing tundra vegetation will affect future climates. Tundra ecosystems exchange energy, water and carbon gases with the atmosphere, which are important elements of the climate system. As...


Toward Predicting Future Tundra Carbon Balance
Principal Investigator: Lafleur, Peter M
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2007 2005 2004
Summary: The broad goal of this research is to increase our understanding of tundra carbon balance of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and predict into the future the impacts of climate warming on these systems. Since we are interested in all aspects of the tundra carbon balance a variety of methods are employed. These can be broken down into 4 basic categories: 1. Tundra-atmosphere fluxes - the ex...


Climate Change Impacts on Canadian Arctic Tundra Ecosystems – North Slave Métis Community Traditional Knowledge Study
Principal Investigator: Grieve, Sheryl
Licensed Year(s): 2010 2009 2008 2007
Summary: This project is part of a larger IPY study, CiCAT, which is looking at the effect of climate change on arctic tundra ecosystems. For their project, the researchers will be collecting North Slave Métis Community’s traditional knowledge on vegetation and terrain changes in the North Slave region. In addition, they will be collecting and commenting on the scientific methodology for the larger CiCAT p...


Active layer growth and groundwater chemistry, Daring Lake, NWT
Principal Investigator: English, Michael C
Licensed Year(s): 2003 2002 2001 2000
Summary: The crew will fly from Yellowknife to the Tundra Ecosystem Research Station camp on Daring Lake from BHP (Ekati Mine) by helicopter. The research team itinerary consists of: (1) setting up the camp; (2) sampling all of the major streams flowing into Daring Lake for chemistry and instantaneous flow; (3) walking through several basins to decide on an intensive sampling site; and (4) installing dri...
