NASA Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) Airborne Flights 2023
Principal Investigator: Miller, Charles E
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5601. From 2017 – 2022, ABoVE airborne teams collected data across a wide variety of ecosystems in both the US and Canada. Depending on available funds, the team may re-fly one of the sensors to collect hyperspectral data at several locations in 2023. For 2023, the NASA Dynamic Aviation King Air B-200 aircraft with a h...


The export of terrigenous dissolved organic carbon from boreal terrestrial ecosystems to the Arctic Ocean and its vulnerability to environmental change
Principal Investigator: Fichot, Cedric
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5611. The primary objective of this funded project is to develop a sophisticated model that can simulate the mobilization, transport, transformations, and export of terrigenous dissolved organic carbon (tDOC) from the Mackenzie River watershed to the Arctic Ocean. The model will be used to simulate the transfer of tDOC dur...


Detailed mapping of the Sosan Group Sedimentary Rocks
Principal Investigator: Canam, Rebecca
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5572. The objective of this field season is to gather more information on the depositional history of the Sosan Group. This will be accomplished through field observations, such as noting sedimentary structures and measuring detailed stratigraphic sections. This will help determine what processes deposited the sediment...


Regional bedrock mapping of the Paleoproterozoic Hill Island Lake assemblage and underlying basement rocks
Principal Investigator: Canam, Rebecca
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5541. Objectives: To conduct regional bedrock mapping and supporting analytical work to improve our understanding of the tectonic framework of the Hill Island Lake area in the southeastern Northwest Territories. A total of 7 weeks will be spent in the field, from June 28, 2023 until August 15, 2023, in four different c...


Understanding of distribution and sources of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in the north and east of Great Slave Lake and coastal regions
Principal Investigator: Chen, Bing
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5251. The proposed project will evaluate the temporal and spatial distribution of Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in the water and sediment of Great Slave Lake and surrounding communities, landfills, drinking water, and industries to identify the source of PBDEs. The concentration and distribution of PBDEs will be de...


Aquifer Mapping of the Hay River and Kakisa/Cameron Hills Transboundary Region in Alberta & Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Palombi, Dan
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5382. There is limited knowledge of groundwater resources in the Alberta-Northwest Territories transboundary basins. Hydrogeological information to delineate transboundary groundwater is scarce and aquifers in this area have not been fully defined and mapped. The primary and long-term goal of the research project is to cont...


De Beers Canada Snap Lake Mine Environmental Monitoring 2023
Principal Investigator: Tran, Lisa
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5476. The goal of this project is to collect environmental monitoring of wildlife (incidental observations only), vegetation, air quality, hydrology and aquatics in the Snap Lake study area. Methods used are outlined in the management and monitoring plans (aquatic effects monitoring program, water management plan [survei...


De Beers - Gahcho Kué Environmental Monitoring Program
Principal Investigator: Liu, William X
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5393. The objective of the proposed studies is to implement the approved environmental monitoring and management plans to monitor any potential environmental effects from the mining activities at the Gahcho Kue Mine. The proposed studies will include the collection of air quality, geochemistry, hydrology, water and sedi...


Tectonic studies of the Rae craton and flanking orogenic systems
Principal Investigator: Thiessen, Eric
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5403. This research will be guided by three objectives: 1) determine the largest possible contribution of mantle-derived heat sources; 2) establish a modern structural and tectono-metamorphic framework; and 3) evaluate evidence for mantle-derived heat input. Studies will involve field observations and targeted small-vol...


Wetland status, change, and seasonal inundation dynamics for assessing the vulnerability of waterfowl habitat within the ABoVE study domain
Principal Investigator: French, Nancy H
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2020 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5205. The main project goal is to characterize changes in waterfowl habitat using remote sensing approaches developed during prior NASA ABoVE research campaigns. The first objective is to create wetland type and surface inundation products (maps) for the ABoVE boreal region. The second objective is to assess the efficacy of...
