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. 5732. In the context of the above (see Rationale), our overarching goal 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 collec...


Tonian–Ediacaran Geobiology of the Mackenzie Mountains, NWT
Principal Investigator: Strauss, Justin Vincent
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5717. This proposal aims to investigate three of the most intriguing questions of the Neoproterozoic Era (1000-541 million years ago, Ma) by performing a field-based examination of sedimentary rocks in the Mackenzie Mountains of Northwest Territories. These questions include: 1) what are the stratigraphic expressions a...


Long-term ecological and geomorphological investigations in the alpine tundra of the Mackenzie Mountains, NWT
