Landscape Change in the Western Arctic
Principal Investigator: Lantz, Trevor C.
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5594. The main goal is to use remote sensing (Landsat, QuickBird, InSAR, Airphotos, and Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS)) to document regional landscape change (tundra fire, infrastructure, saline flooding, slumps, subsidence, vegetation change, lake drainage / expansion, etc.). 2) Use field sampling and monitoring t...


Recent, rapid environmental change in the western Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Thienpont, Joshua
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5573. To understand how landscape changes caused by climate warming are impacting aquatic ecosystems, particularly lakes and streams. These disturbances focus primarily on permafrost thaw, in the form of thaw slumps and landslides. The understanding derived will allow better understanding of how water quality and aquatic ha...


Impacts of permafrost thaw on land cover and downstream water quality
Principal Investigator: Baltzer, Jennifer L
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5568. The primary objective of this project is to link long-term records of ground temperature and permafrost conditions with changes in landcover and water quality of adjacent ponds and lakes. In other words, how thawing permafrost alters terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem properties. Along the Mackenzie Valley corridor...


Impact of climate change on catchment biogeochemistry in plains and shield regions
Principal Investigator: Olefeldt, David
Licensed Year(s): 2021 2019 2018
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4734. The objective of this research is to identify impacts of climate change and permafrost thaw on pond methane emissions, and on water chemistry in streams that drain peatland-rich catchments. Impacts on methane emissions will be assessed. Specific objectives are: 1) to characterize the trends and variability in magn...
