Changing fire regimes in northern coniferous forests
Principal Investigator: Wallenius, Tuomo H
Licensed Year(s): 2009
Summary: This licence is being issued for the scientific research application No.1103. The research objective is to study the occurrence of forest fires in Northern Canada during the past 200 years. They are especially interested in large scale averages and changes in the estimated fire return intervals/annually burned proportions of the landscape. Specific research questions are: 1. How often for...

Post-fire forest regeneration in the Western Canadian continental boreal forest: measurement and landscape modeling
Principal Investigator: Gal, Ruth A.C.
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: The objective of this study is to develop a landscape model capable of predicting regeneration after fire in the Northern Boreal Forest. Data has been collected in the past from Porter Lake (near Lutsel K'e), Big Fish Lake, Alberta, and Wood Buffalo National Park, between Pine Lake and Peace Point. Data has also been collected from the International Crown Fire Modeling Experiment near Fort Pro...

Fire, carbon budget and climate change
Principal Investigator: Wein, Ross
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The research team will be examining areas of permafrost south of Inuvik and near Hay River in order to assess the rate of loss of permafrost as a result of the warming in climate over the past twenty years. The loss in permafrost may be speeded up following a local fire. The wetlands that replace these areas of permafrost could lead to a greater production of methane (one of the gases that contr...

A Northern Forest Ecosystem Simulation Model of Early Post-Fire Tree Seedling Establishment, Growth and Competition
Principal Investigator: Gal, Ruth Ann
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: The researcher and her team will glean physiological rates and relationships for tree growth from the literature and substitute the data into a functional model, which will be calibrated against intensive sampling within WBNP over dry, mesic and wet landscapes....

Effects of fire on plants, animals and human land use
Principal Investigator: Wein, Ross
Licensed Year(s): 1984
Summary: To gather information on fire behaviour, the effects of fire on plants and animals, and the social implications of fire management. Satellite imagery processing, aerial photography and ground censusing will be used....

Licence #1896
Principal Investigator: Kershaw, K.
Licensed Year(s): 1975
Summary: To determine how plant communities in the northern boreal forest respond to burning or to protection from burning, their rate of recovery and the factors governing the recovery process, for Arctic Land Use Research Program....
