Recovery of boreal caribou habitat after forest fires
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2020 2019 2018
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4630. In 2015-2016, the Deninu Kue First Nation (DKFN) and LGL Limited completed a traditional use study on boreal caribou habitat and habitat use that incorporated traditional knowledge and scientific information in the identification of foraging habitat for boreal caribou in the South Slave region of the Northwest Territo...


Structure, Carbon Dynamics, and Silvichronology of Boreal Forests
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2019 2018 2016 2015 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006
Résumé: Objectives of the research are two-fold. First is to estimate structure, growth, and production of forest stands in northwestern Canada by applying a stand reconstruction and 3D ground-based laser techniques as well as stand measurement, aboveground litter collection, and find root sampling. Second is to examine the relationship between climate change in the high latitudinal regions and the patter...


Using the past to inform the future: A paleoecological perspective of the impacts of drought and fire on lakes, permafrost and forests
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2019 2018 2017 2016
Résumé: The objectives of this research are to examine the frequency and severity of past wildfire and drought (drought-like) conditions in the southern Northwest Territories. Specifically, the research team will examine the following questions: 1) how frequent and severe have fires been in the past; 2) are fires becoming more frequent/severe due to the impacts of climate change; 3) what impact does wildf...


Understanding Changes in the Freshwater Ecosystems and Drinking Water in Northern Canada
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2017
Résumé: The Objectives of this research are to: 1) determine where the participating communities obtain their drinking water from within their home and while on the land and why; and determine the areas of each region that are considered valuable and important areas of water quality; and 2) determine what the concerns are concerning the sources of water, both within the homes and natural water sources, ...


Impacts of forest fire on discontinuous permafrost in the south-western Northwest Territories
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2018 2017 2016
Résumé: The goal of this project is to look at how permafrost is changing following forest fire over a range of environmental conditions, with the purpose of improving how change is modeled in the future. The fires of 2014 in the southwestern Northwest Territories (NWT) provide an opportunity to examine how discontinuous permafrost responds to disturbances. This work is being carried out in collaboration ...


Paleohydrological and Paleoecological Reconstruction of the Mackenzie Basin Deltas
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002
Résumé: This project will formulate a comprehensive history of the frequency and magnitude of floods and droughts and corresponding ecological responses in the Mackenzie Basin deltas over the past 1000 years. Results from this study will provide an essential dat...


An Exploratory Evaluation of the Effect of the Climate Change During the Past Two Centuries on Structure of Jack Pine Forests.
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 1999
Résumé: The main objective of the proposed research is to reconstruct the structure of monospecific forests of different ages, and to explore whether or not the recent climate change has affected the structure of the forests in northern Canada. Pure stands of Jack pine or aspen will be studied in Wood Buffalo National Park. The intent is to determine the effect of the so-called Climate Change on those f...
