Acoustic Monitoring of Marine Mammals and Ship Traffic in the ISR
Principal Investigator: Insley, Stephen
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5559. The main objective is to assess and mitigate the impacts of increased shipping and sea-ice loss on marine mammals in the eastern Beaufort Sea. The primary method used in the completion of this objective will be passive acoustic monitoring of the western entrances to the Northwest Passage shipping route, particularly t...


Using computer models to understand what influences mercury levels in the Beaufort Sea Shelf food web
Principal Investigator: Giang, Amanda
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5518. The objectives of this project are to develop and apply a computer model of mercury bioaccumulation in the Beaufort Sea Shelf food web; to estimate the effects of selected environmental changes on historical Beaufort Sea beluga MeHg concentrations from (1970-2010s); and, to investigate potential future trajectories of...


Landscape Change in the Western Arctic
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5594. The main goal is to use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, and Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS)) to document regional landscape change (tundra fire, infrastructure, saline flooding, slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.). 2) Use field sampling and monitoring t...


Glacier mass balance of the Melville South Ice Cap
Principal Investigator: Burgess, David O
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022 2021 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5450. The objectives of this integrated monitoring and research project is to provide 1) science based knowledge pertaining to the patterns and rates of climate change, and 2) a quantitative basis for estimating Canada’s contributions to global sea-level rise. Glacier mass balance is defined as the difference between th...


Potential Impacts of Climate Change on the levels of Poly- and Perfluoroalkyls in Country Foods and Implications for Human Health Risk
Principal Investigator: Wallace, Elizabeth
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5313. The objectives of this study are to estimate potential future Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) concentrations in marine country foods under two climate change scenarios, and to determine dietary exposure estimates and hazard indices based on potential future concentrations and dietary intake data. The longer-term obje...

Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021 2019 2018 2017
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5277. The objectives of this research are: 1) Use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, UAVs, etc.) to document regional landscape change (tundra fire, infrastructure, saline flooding, slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.); and 2) Use field sampling and monitoring to determi...


The annual scientific Arctic expedition onboard the Canadian research icebreaker CCGS Amundsen
Principal Investigator: Merzouk, Anissa
Licensed Year(s): 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4997. The aim of the research programs supported by the Amundsen in 2021 is to study on a long-term basis how climate induced changes are impacting the marine ecosystem, carbon cycle, contaminant transport, biogeochemical fluxes, and exchange processes across the ocean-sea ice-atmosphere interface in the Canadian Arctic Oce...


Estimating Aquatic Species Physiological Limits (ASPL) through a Forage Fish Monitoring and Observation (FFMO) program in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR)
Principal Investigator: Steiner, Nadja
Licensed Year(s): 2021 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4758. The 3 year project objective is to conduct underwater eco-physiological monitoring in remote Inuvialuit coastal areas in both summer and winter seasons. This will result in critical benchmark data with emphasis on coastal forage fish species during rapid climate change. Another project off-shoot will be a self-suffici...
