Question 1: How does beaver activit...


Assessment of the Western Arctic Boundary Current
Principal Investigator: Pickart, Robert S.
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5917. The main objective of the program is to characterize the Western Arctic Boundary Current, which flows at the edge of the continental shelf, in order to understand its role in dictating shelf-basin exchange of water and materials and how it impacts the ecosystem of the region, including the occurrence of marine mammal...


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...


Multi-methodological three-dimensional investigation of open- and closed-system Pingos in northwestern Canada (Pingo3D)
Principal Investigator: Kneisel, Christof
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5921. This project aims to investigate the three-dimensional internal structure of pingos in the Mackenzie Delta Region. The focus is on small-scale heterogeneities and a detailed delineation of ice-rich or unfrozen areas within, underneath and in close proximity to different pingos. High-resolution, 3D information gathere...


Mechanical and thermal design of embankments built on permafrost
Principal Investigator: Bilodeau, Jean-Pascal
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5914. The main objective is to develop a practical method for the mechanical and thermal design of embankments built on permafrost based on the properties of the active layer and of the permafrost, as well as the loading conditions. An existing thin section of the highway embankment built on permafrost has been instrume...

PIONEER (Effects of underwater noise and chemical PollutIOn on heariNg abilitiEs of cEtaceans in the Arctic)
Principal Investigator: Morell Ybarz, Maria
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5876. The aim of this study is to identify and quantify the effects of noise on hearing in cetaceans in the Arctic. Ears of harvested belugas in Hendrickson Island will be used to determine if the individuals suffered a hearing impairment, and if it is compatible with noise exposure. (1) After the head and lower jaws ha...
