Using Inuvialuit and Gwich'in observations to monitor environmental change in the Beaufort Delta Region
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6148. The core objective of this research is to work with Inuvialuit and Gwich’in experts to document local observations of environmental conditions. Specifically, we will use semi-structured interviews and, where possible, land-based observation to document environmental conditions with photographs and videos georeference...


Remote sensing of winter snow and soil moisture status using airborne Ku and L- band Synthetic Aperture Radar observations (2025)
Principal Investigator: Kelly, Richard
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6137. The main objectives are: 1. to fly a novel Ku- and L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system over snow covered tundra land, lakes and sea ice in winter to obtain unique radar observations of these environments; 2. to use collected field measurements acquired by ongoing field work by P. Marsh's (PI) group at Trail ...


Sikunnguaq - “the likeness or image of ice in maps”
Principal Investigator: Scharien, Randall
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6130. This research project aims to develop sea ice information retrieval algorithms for satellite data, for safe sea ice travel needs as identified by Inuit (ice roughness, slush, and ice thickness). Information retrieval methods developed for satellite data will be transferred to prototype image product formats represent...


Resampling of Microalgal Communities and soil lipids in Lakes Across a 1400 km Transect from Yukon to Northwest Territories: Analysis of Changes Since 1993
Principal Investigator: Alibert, Marie
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5619. The objective of this study is to examine how climate change has impacted lake ecosystems and soils whether the changes follow a similar direction as those observed in Nunavik. Based on the results from Quebec, there should be a northward shift of different types of microalgal communities because of vegetation evolut...


Hydrology of Northern Latitudes
Principal Investigator: Marsh, Philip
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5842. The objectives of this project are to: (1) develop improved understanding of, and ability to predict, the complex northern hydrologic system, (2) consider the integrated effect of the changing climate on vegetation, snow, permafrost, streamflow, and lakes, and (4) develop improved water models needed to predict futur...


Permafrost monitoring and collection of baseline terrain information in the Mackenzie Valley Corridor, NWT
Principal Investigator: Smith, Sharon S
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5776. This project continues the on-going monitoring program of the same title (Licence # 17182) Permafrost monitoring and collection of baseline terrain information in the Mackenzie Valley Corridor, NWT). This phase of the project is largely data collection. Objectives are: • To provide baseline knowledge of permafrost ...


Effects of snowpack temporal and physical properties affect wintertime carbon fluxes in Arctic landscapes
Principal Investigator: Rutter, Nick
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5822. The objectives of this project are: (1) To develop, deploy, and refine low-cost sensors to measure green house gas (GHG) concentrations. (2) To identify GHG concentration patterns within snowpacks at a landscape scale (1 to 10 square km). (3) To optimise winter carbon cycling in climate models, and scale up simula...


To Stay or Not to Stay: Planning for Relocation in Canadian Communities Vulnerable to Climate Stressors.
Principal Investigator: Bonnett, Nicole
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5731. The research aims to explore planning for climate induced relocation in Canadian communities that are vulnerable to climate stressors. This research project will address the following objectives to better understand: 1) the extent to which relocation is integrated into local policy and strategic planning documents; 2...


Beaufort Sea Coastal and Nearshore Geoscience Research
Principal Investigator: Whalen, Dustin JR
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5770. Objectives: To update the assessment of the state of the ISR coastline; To gain a better understanding of coastal permafrost and impacts of change; and, To gain a better understanding of coastal dynamics with respect to unique ecosystems and communities. Objective 1: To update the assessment of the state of the...


Carving out Climate Testimony: Inuit Youth, Wellness & Environmental Stewardship
Principal Investigator: Bagelman, Jennifer
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5758. This project addresses Arctic Ecosystems and their Impact on Inuit Communities. This project asks the two-fold question: how does climate change impact Inuit youth and what are the resilience factors that enhance well-being? The project is especially interested in innovative forms of adaptation key to continued survi...
