THAWPOND-NWT – Remote sensing analysis of vegetation and thaw pond colour dynamics in the continuous permafrost zone: from local to regional (Northwest Territories, Arctic Canada)
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2023
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5639. The goal of this research project is to better understand the characteristics of various different lakes, how their characteristics vary, as well as their potential relation to permafrost thaw events in the recent or distant past. The frequency of occurrence across space and time as well as the variability of: 1) opt...


Mapping, monitoring and modelling permafrost change in the NWT
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2025 2024 2023 2022 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5473. The primary objectives of this research are: 1) to develop and test new methods of characterizing permafrost and monitoring permafrost landscape change with a focus on the Beaufort Delta, central Mackenzie Valley and North Slave regions; 2) mapping sensitive permafrost terrain across NWT by integrating expert assessme...


Measuring surface displacement using winter SAR
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2023 2022
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5270. The objective of this research is to determine the accuracy of existing physical models of the InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) dry snow signal; and, if the snow signature can be removed to enable accurate measurement of heave from winter refreezing in the active layer. There are currently three res...


NASA Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) Airborne Initiative 2022
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2022
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5304. The extended ABoVE Study Area includes most of northwestern North America west of Hudson Bay and north and east of the coastal mountain ranges. It encompasses the variability in the key types of ecosystems that are both unique to arctic and boreal regions in North America as well as being representative of the larger ...


Remote Sensing and Geophysics of Tundra Landscapes
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2022
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5193. The research team will investigate the possibility of linking field-measured characteristics of tundra landscapes (e.g. active layer thickness, soil moisture, plant distribution and ecosystem composition, etc.) with remotely-sensed data. The overall objective of the project is to identify the connection that exist bet...


Beaufort Sea Coastal Restoration – Exploring the Potential for Using Indigenous Plant Species to Revegetate Coastline Affected by Permafrost Thaw Slumping
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2021 2021 2020 2019 2018
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5057. The objectives include: 1) Creating a series of maps showing the thaw slump activity along the Beaufort Sea Coast near Tuktoyaktuk; 2) Developing detailed water, vegetation, and ground temperature maps of the study sites using drones; 3) Examining the effects of thaw slumping on the water quality of landscape-level r...


Hydrothermal Regime of Riparian Terrain in Continuous Permafrost, Western Canadian Arctic

chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4663. The primary objectives of this research are: 1) to develop and test new methods of monitoring permafrost landscape change; 2) to investigate the impacts of natural and human disturbance on permafrost terrain and the ground temperature conditions in natural environments and in communities; and 3) to assess the physical...


NASA ABoVE Airborne Campaign 2019
chercheur principal:
Année(s) de permis: 2019 2018 2017
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4499. This airborne field campaign will link studies conducted on the ground with data collected through satellite remote sensing, enabling a deeper understanding of the vulnerability and resilience of these ecosystems, and how people within and beyond this region are responding to change. The ABoVE airborne campaigns can p...


Beaufort Sea Coastal Geoscience Research
